There used to be a metal meter switch for the OM-1 but they're long gone.
We had to go back to the old plastic switches. Some of the metal switches,
made for the 1 were all black. There are 3 different stud lengths for the
OM-1/1N meter switch (IOW< when the plastic switch breaks off, the brass
stud that remains is part of the switch, not something you would attach the
new switch to.) Also, the 2/2N switch is different from the 1/1N.
