Philco 47-1230 phono
#3

Ok thanks. I actually made a needle for it. The original had a small piece of metal bent to a 90 degree with the jewel pressed through a hole in the end of it. The other side of the 90 went into a hole in the cartridge. I took metal of the same diameter and bent it into a 90. I then took a stylus from an old bsr turntable and married it to the 90 piece i made. I did this by using small heatshrink to hold the needle and the 90 together. I topped if off with a dab of crazy glue. It worked like the original. The only problem i have with it is that i dont trust it to stay together. It has so far.
