Picked one up last week. It's a screw in, schematic shows it #24, but no part list is attached to the download from nostalgia.

The modern equivalent is #46.

You can find a handy pilot lamp cross reference at Chuck's site.

So how's it coming? Just got a pair of 84's going here. They are the updated version of the 80 I was lucky on one of them just needed the filter cap and the ant coil rewound. The other one needed the filters, all the paper caps, a few resistors, the ant and osc coil rewound. Both also had bad grounds at the tube sockets.

Hi Terry!
It's going good so far.Cleaned the chassis up and I changed the 2 electrolytics and the power cord, and it's up and running. I'm now rebuilding all the bakelites and checking/replacing the resistors.I cleaned up the cabinet,and ordered some cloth from John. I'll let you know if I need some help...again. Icon_shifty
