It took a long time (~4 years!), but I finally found a few to complete my 15DX. I paid around $45 BIN + shipping for the three untested. I got lucky and thy all test like new Icon_smile

Philco branded globe 80s and 42s are pretty scarce too. I suggest you set up a search with email alerts for "Philco globe" on ebay and be patient. Also ask around on the forums and radio clubs.
