Hey friends, I’m new to here. I have been into radios for a few years now. Most collecting. This is the first restoration I have done. I am mainly doing the cabinet while I have a tech work on my chassis. I have a Philco 40-180. I am looking for a new set of 8 push buttons (wine red). Renovated Radios is out of stock and has not replied to my emails. Does anyone know of any place or anyone who sells these? It’s the missing piece! Mine are so badly corroded.

Welcome to the Phorum! You might want to send a PM to fellow member Mike Koste (gobsofknobs). I've done business with him in the past and got excellent service. Take care and BE HEALTHY! Gary
