Refer to Philco 47-1230 console Phono, AM, SW, FM. One of the trimmer capacitor screws has a different style head from the others and is probably not an original screw for this radio. What is the thread size for these screws? It appears to be very fine. All the slots in the screw heads are straight, as is usual, but tuning would be a lot easier if the slots were Phillips style, square, or hex. Is there a source for these screws?
