Norm,

The radio you have has been manufactured over the year's with 12 & 25 watt version's under the following Names/Brands:

Albrecht AE497.
Identical or very similar to: INTEK Multicom-497, Dragon SS-497, Roadforce 497, Pro Star 497, Comanche Warrior, Eagle Tomahawk, Northpoint and Cherokee CBS 1000.

Some had the RV while other's had the VR designation for tune up.

You may find it very hard to locate new part's for it.

For spare part's for them you may want to check the internet auction sites.

Generally most people find it would cost more to repair them than they originally cost.

Hope this help's,
