Hello Everyone - New to this forum.  I'm in the middle of a chassis restoration on a beautiful 41-290.

I picked up the piece recently on CL.  Cabinet was refinished, in natural !!!  Don't laugh !!!  I may go back to the original color, but first things first.

After I removed the chassis, I noticed that the on/off switch was bypassed, so power on was achieved by plugging it in !!!

My question is can I replace this switch with another Philco chassis switch that is similar or identical?  41-280 perhaps?

Please advise.  Thanks.
