[Bgmrc-list] [SPAM]mobile radio mounting question

I have a secondhand HTX-242 2m mobile radio from Radio Shack (thanks to 
Eddie WB4QAU for getting it working), that I want to mount in my truck. 
The mounting bracket and hardware didn't come with the radio and Radio 
Shack has been no help in indentifying the screws that will fit into the 
sides of the case so I can improvise something. I might be able to 
estimate the shaft diameter, but I'd have to buy samples of just about 
every possible thread count and try them all to find the right one.

If anyone has any information that will help me find substitute screws 
for mounting this radio, I'll be very grateful.

Thanks and 73,

Kevin AK4MC
