All for want of a fuse-holder cap! (HK 800+ rcvr)

Recently picked up a tattered Harman/Kardon 800+ quad receiver.

After getting all the way through to the full test phase with speakers I discovered that even when set for 2-channel operation (4 amplifier sections summed into 2 channels) this receiver needs fuses in both the FRONT and REAR speaker positions to output sound to the speakers. Sounds great through headphones!

As luck would have it this unit came missing 2 of the fuse caps. I managed to recycle one from the PS because that fuse holder was busted up, so replaced it with a spare that fit. So now I just need 1 more!

But it's an odd size and every cap I've found is smaller diameter in the threaded portion.

Markings indicate "SATO Japan" and 10A, 250V on the busted up fuse holder. I did locate SATO on the web and they are still in business and it looks like they still make this holder.

However, I don't really feel like setting up an account just to order 1 part. Not unless I have to.


If anyone has any leads as to where I might find one in Portland, Oregon or via web or from your junk drawer! Your help would be appreciated.
