i just got a Philco chairside
#6

I took the chassis out and everything is original,even the tubes.
  All of them were very good.
    After bringing it up on the variac it plays good with out any hum.
 I will replace all the caps, but  leave the old electrolytics  in place [disconnected].

  Is there a replacement for the thin metal gold dial that has the station numbers on it?
 This one is very thin, and fragile.Here is a photo
