The Philco 46-1209 that I am working on for a friend has the D-10A magnetic cartridge. The cartridge works and has an original style needke in it so it is OK. has anyone found a source for these needles or are they still unobtainium? I need to re-flock the turntable and get a new idler but I don't want to spend that money if I can't provide my friend with a player that he can't get spare needles for.

What about the possiblity of converting it to the D-10 crystal cartridge which I understand is still available? I know the output will be higner but that can probably handled with some mods. I was thinking more of mounting the carttridge.

Any other suggestions?

Thanks,
Wayne
