If you make it a project, the parts will come. I say this because I’ve been there. I bought a Philco 46-480 and made it halfway into the restoration before I realized that I was missing the ratio detector coil. The odds were against me; that coil was unique to only the 46-480. I called, emailed, and wrote to folks all over the country. It took a couple of months, but FINALLY one great day I was surprised by a phone call. Mark Oppat of Old Radio Parts found a new one.

The call is yours, and it ultimately depends on how much you want to see it restored. To me, the 46-480 was my first ever console radio and I really, really wanted to see it happen. But you may not have too much money or desire invested into this one.
