I need an on/off volume switch for my model 18X. The parts list I got from Nostalgia Air shows it as Philco part number 33-5024. Can anyone tell me anything about this switch? I have a 500K audio taper with switch that I bought for another radio project. Will that work? The schematic look like it shows a value of 75,000 ohms. Is there some resource out there that will convert old Philco part numbers to current items? Thanks for any help.

Hey, just answered my own question. Play things of the past had the switch listed with the Philco part number. It's a 250K, TAP 50K w/switch. Thanks anyway guys. Should have done a little more searching first.
