The PHILCO Phorum

Hi All! Relatively new to the hobby but enjoying immensely.  I have repaired my 38-10 to good working order however , despite the slit in the dial for a light, there is no pilot/dial light assembly and no evidence of any clipped lines that once fed a light.  It must have had a dial light or there wouldn't be a slit for it to shine thru.  Would someone be kind enough to advise me as to possible hook up points and proper bulb? All comments greatly appreciated.

Welcome to the Phorum!


I have not worked on a 38-10 so can only go by the schematic info. The pilot lamp is a 34-2064 which translates to a #44 bulb (see https://philcoradio.com/library/index.php/parts/lamps/)

It connects into the filament string and ground. You can see the back of a 38-10 with the pilot lamp in its cone shaped housing in the photo on the following thread: https://philcoradio.com/phorum/showthrea...#pid176924

Thanks!  This is just what I've been looking for!
