I am gathering parts for a little Zenith L403 ac/dc radio from the early '50's. It has a selenium rectifier (Zenith p/n 212-5), and says it's rated for 75 ma, no more info. Will a 1N4007 be able to replace that? Should I even replace it at all? Anyone have a suggested replacement? Thanks!

Courage will follow when Faith takes the lead.
