I looked up your radio.. it's nice looking! you can also get 10 packs of 1847's @ pinball life. they're 2.50 a box. I swapped out the 44 in the pilot lamp for a triple LED red bulb and the band indicator with a quad warm white, super bright LED. even with the #239 bulb that the schematic calls for @ .35 amps wasn't bright enough, IMO. plus the 2 LED's take some of the load off the filament section of the PS. I am keeping the 44's in the dial and #239 bulb for the push button labels though. I'm really only ok with the harsh white LED light in some applications.

I've been get lamps from WJOE lately. He carries the lamps I need for my vintage HI-FI stuff (Japanese and European) weird bulb specs they used over there. plus the 239 bulbs (philco part 24-2141) he carries as well. Also 1866 (long life #44)

Does yours have the frosted pilot lamp (Philco part 34-2210) ? I couldn't tell from the pic if it was frosted or just darkened from age.
