I am working of this Philco Model 60 and have a bad on/off switch. It is riveted shut so I don't think it is something I can easily fix. The pot is .35 meg. about 1 1/2" in diameter with a 1" long by 1/4" flatted shaft. I have been looking around for something to replace this without muchluck. It is Philco part # 33-5006. I don't know what the appropriate wattage is or how critical the value is. The closest I have seen is 300k at Play things of the past. How critical is the value and wattage. It appears modern replacements are in the 500k / 1/2 watt range. I don't know if that would work. Thanks.

Rick
