Hello guys I just joined up I have 14 Antique Radios including 3 Philcos  Floor model 41-290 x 610 and model 70 here is my question i have recently acquired a Philco RP 1  wireless phono i understand it needs some work including possibly the mini chassis the motor turns at 78 rpm I counted like I did for my Victrola a piece of paper under a record and count rpms per minute My question a supplier has good price Ceramic 
Phono cartridge conversion he says will fit the RP 1 and outperform and be more durable than the rebuilding of my old Chrystal cartridge I'm fairly sure its internals are bad and the restoration looks to be a real pain anyway does anyone know if this ceramic type cartridge and needle transmit the single to my radio as it should ? I will appreciate information seller is Vintage Electronics out of Hattisburg MS 

Thanks gentlemen
