Philco 37-60/37-61...I have recently picked one of these up in a garage sale for $5...It has the 5Y4G bulb a little off center and close to the lower right corner...It has a metal bulb in the lower right corner thats rusted and all i can make out is THEON...can anyone tell me what kind of bulb this is...Its not glass and I need to know what kind of bulb goes in the tuning window also...I plugged it in and all the glass bulbs came on except the 5Y4G which i have ordered ...If anyone can tell me anything about this radio It would be a big help...Ronnie
