Philco missed out on a chance to jazz up this set.

 Well, one could always rig up a warm white LED behind the pushbuttons running off the 6.3 volt filament winding, something easily removable, and which would not add too much extra of current load to the winding.

Hmmmmm......
Very interesting idea.
It's not how bad you mess up, it's how well you can recover.
