600-T Stereo Beacon Lamp

[tutor_turtle]

I inherited a model 600-T from the original owner.
I had helped him out with some replacement tubes for the tuner many years ago.
When he passed, his wife gifted to me.
Aside from a lot of dust, it had some leaking/swelling caps, otherwise it works just fine.
I swapped out the obviously bad caps, leaving the rest to be replaced as needed.
I need two lamps:
The side glass lamps (8V Cartridge type, 150441-2) That I have
The stereo beacon lamp (150594-1) is the problem child. As it is tied directly into the circuit, if it is loaded down with the wrong lamp, it kills the signal.
The closest lamp that works is 1.5v @ 25ma. It's too bright, so bright, it likely won't last long.
It's 1/4" (~6mm) Dia. With bare wire leads.
Has anyone replaced this lamp? What did you use? And where did you source it from?

Use a red LED in parallel with a 470Ω resistor for the stereo beacon.

The dial lamps can be replaced with LED strips of 3 LEDs. The LED strips of 3 LEDs run at 12 volts. 2 in series would be 24 volts. If you added a 3rd strip in series behind the tuning meter, it would be 36 volts total and can be run at 31 volts with a 1K series resistor.

Awesome!
Thank you very much.
Kinda like the incandescent thing for the dial.
The original owner would be around to see his rig all fixed up.
Now to get the dust out.
Kitchen grease has solidified the dust on the insides (he never smoked)
