I'm restoring my first vintage car radio a Transitone model 817. Progress has been good, and the unit now plays.
The pilot light located in the tuner is missing and the Philco parts list doesn't give the lamp number only Lamp Part # 34-2039.
Can anyone tell me the lamp number?

Thanks, in advance.

Rick
