Ron, you posted (in another thread) that the correct contact underneath the chassis deck for the "pushbutton" dial lamp on this radio is contact B9 on the bandswitch. Thanks.

I have a couple of questions. How does one determine which of the 5 lamps shown on the schematic is the "pushbutton" one? I see that one goes to B9 but on the 2 schematics I have, the dial lamps are not labeled which is which.

Subsequent to that question is this one. I am still unable to get that lamp to light. I checked continuity from the bulb socket to contact B9. There is continuity. However a new lamp will not light. I am using a #44 there. Is that the problem? Again I see no label on the schematic which states which bulb it ought to be. So I'm winging it on that one. I have found no parts list for this radio.
