I am listening to Radio China International on 49M band as I write this. Radio is my 16B cathedral.
If you want your 128 someone fixed right by someone I recommend that you contact Steve Davis. He literally built a Philco 43 cabinet for me and his work is VERY good!
RE your dial, many of the earlier models from 1935 had a dark red dial that was tough to see through. You can try brighter pilot lights, just make sure that the plastic diffusers in front of the lights are not so close to them that you burn holes in them from the brighter (and hotter) bulb.
I just switched over to Radio Viet Nam. Yep, I guess time does heal all wounds, even from those __________. (word that means one's parents were not married)
