Hi, and I apologize for missing your post until now. Congratulations on your acquisitions.

I do not know the correct size screw you need to replace the chassis hold-down screws, sorry. They will be small sheet metal screws, about 1-1/2 to 2 inches long.

What you are calling a heat shield is actually called a tube shield, and will be necessary for proper operation of your 38-15. Without it, the set may oscillate (squeal).

Pattern #14 is perfect for your 38-15.

You can find all the help you need right here at the Philco Phorum. If you don't get an answer right away, feel free to yell louder. Icon_lol
