[Hallicrafters] Fwd: S-38 #47 Lamp Holder Replacement

[Edward B Richards]

Hi Bill;

Check out Antique Electronic Supply ( www.tubesandmore.com). They have
several 2-wire holders. You should only put the #47 lamp across 1/2 the
filament of the 35Z5 or 35W4 as the case may be. Any other place will
upset the filament circuit. Good luck.
