Station tabs for 39-116 and Mystery Remote
#2

Hi Lew

Barring the discovery of a new-old-stock set of original 1939 call tabs, you can make your own on your PC. Simply measure the size needed and go from there.

The tabs used on the radio's dial escutcheon are larger than call tabs used on other Philco models (those that do not have Mystery Control). So, unless you were lucky enough to run across an original set on eBay, you will probably have to make your own.

Tan lettering against a dark background will work well for the tabs which go on the radio's dial escutcheon. For the actual Mystery Control escutcheon, use dark brown letters against a tan background.
