Okay, I have ordered the remaining electrolytics for the 440, along with some LEDs to convert this - as well as my other Fisher receivers - to an LED Stereo Beacon.
This time I ordered from Digi-Key, mainly because they seemed to have a better selection of LEDs. It's my first order from them; we'll see if they are as efficient as Mouser.
These Fishers use a 47 bulb to illuminate the tuning meter. I also ordered some LED lamps with miniature bayonet bases from Pinball Life. These have the LED mounted to wires protruding from the bayonet base, allowing the LED itself to be easily positioned where you want the light.
