Welcome to the Phorum!!

Here's the gallery info on it http://www.philcoradio.com/gallery/1942a.htm#x

Here are some threads that mention the 42-400 that are in this Phorum (I just googled "Philco 42-400")
http://www.philcoradio.com/phorum/showth...p?tid=9913

Don't know that they will help but there are some.  Don't hesitate to ask questions; folks are usually very willing to help out if they know the answer.  

I do know that 1942 models (actually 1939 to 1942) have rubber covered wiring that usually needs to be replaced or re-insulated.   The link provides some advice on doing so.

1937-1942 pilot lamps often need some rewiring, advice for that is also on this site.
Cheers,
Bob
