Thanks for the info, Ron! I looked at a Sylvania tube guide; they're practically identical except for the bases, so I can see that no other changes would be needed. I'd be willing to bet that Philco got such a deal on the tubes that they switched to.
I'll probably be hanging around here quite a bit. I've accumulated 6 radios so far - 3 are Philcos. I already seem to have an odd attraction to them. (Maybe it's a family thing - my mom worked at a Sylvania tube plant, and I understand they made a lot of Philco-branded tubes.)
