Hi all...

Many tks to all who responded re: parts suppliers of electronic items...

I learned much from this issue of obtaining parts...

In addition to my usual "Teletype" restoration stuff, I also restore old communications receivers from the 50's thru the 80's...

Mostly work on the Japanese receivers, but a lot on Hallicrafters and the likes...

I have worked thru most of my old parts stash, and still have a lot of restorations to complete...I vaguely remember a store in NYC that used to have tons of stuff, but lost track of all the paper work etc, funny tho, I can recall the guys name who I dealt with, but not the company...

They were able to supply a 5CG4 rectifier tube, (Used in early 60's Japan built comm'ns receivers)...It took me months of searching, but this (NYC) store came up with it...It was a very rare tube...Big price, but it made the receiver completely original...

Sorry for rambling on...

Many thanks to all you great guys for all the help...Much appreciated!

Cheers!
