Is there a more efficient way to set variables on a RadioButton's CheckChanged event?

I have 16 radio buttons in an application of mine.. I have to set a variable based on which one was selected.. and I've produced some very ugly code doing this..

private void Foo_CheckedChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        convertSource = 1;
    }

private void Bar_CheckedChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        convertSource = 2;
    }

private void Baz_RadioButton_CheckedChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        convertSource = 3;
    }

Now, I've been thinking about it and to be honest I thought there might have been a way to do it with a switch.. I just can't conceptualize it in my mind.

If anyone could show me a more efficient way of doing this, I'd really appreciate it. It's just really bugging me that such a simple thing as this is taking up fifty to seventy lines of code.

thanks, cpatton
