Found the correct one. This is not a round one, but rather rectangular and black. Part number PHS38-10. Ron verified it in a PM I sent to him.

Also fixed a bad connection that I missed when I reinstalled a Philco Bakelite block. Suddenly my shadow graph is MUCH more sensitive. Still trying to fix another microphonic connection, but slowly getting closer.

Does anyone know anything about the three connections for the antenna. I have only a long wire and ground. Which input gets the long wire? Is there a relatively simple improved antenna that I can make for this radio?
