I finally found an NOS 6U5 green "magic" tuning eye tube for my 1938 Silvertone console model 6152 online tonight. It's been burned out for years, and I could never find one under $40... until now. That's actually the only reason I'm hanging on to that radio... as much as I like the shadow meters used on the 1930's Philco's, I have to admit that glowing green winking eye is pretty cool looking! Can't wait to get it lit up again.
