The PHILCO Phorum

Am trying to source some escutcheon screws for my 41-300. Pretty sure that Philco used the same small screws on most of there escutcheons thru the 30's and early 40's. Older ones where painted black.
Anyway I don't have an accurate way to measure the diameter. My best guess is a number 3 but not sure. Anyone know what it is??

As luck would have it I was digging around for some 6pin tube socket for someone and found a small bag the wood screws suitable for this application. They are #2 x 3/8" long, brass round slotted head. Hillman pn 49114. Good match for the originals except that the bottom of the head isn't tapered it's flat.

I always knew you had a few screws missing

No one will know.

And we won't tell.
And we will even ask Sam to delete this thread.

What kind of horrible person would give you a radio without escutcheon screws! Shame!
