I knew this would be the first question, and should have made it clear in my
note: No, I don't remember.

What I _do_ remember is that we looked through several spec sheets (with
pictures/drawings) in the store's parts books to come up with a compatible
switch, got a few out of the stock room to compare to the TR6 switch, and
the one we selected works like a charm (my guess is that there are several
that would work).

If you go the same route, please take better notes than I did!
