Barry,

We should warn the new Fellows about short leads on the dial lights.

Joe,

In the early days the dial lights had enough wire to hang your self with.
Over time the wires broke and thus become a bit shorter. Today some are 
impossibly short to get the cover off and change the dial lights.

If you own such a receiver, its time to drop the front panel and install some 
wire extensions. Heat shrink tubing makes this job much nicer to than it was 
in the past.

There are many lamps in the bayonet style with different filament voltages 
and current.

I do not have the lamp number at hand or I would list it here.
