Need a #49 lamp for my Hickok 533A

[Leonc]

Anyone know where I can buy a little #49 bias fuse lamp for this old Hickok?

Found a few places on-line but they want like 7 bucks + shipping! Rape!

Thanks guys - excellent!

No problem finding imported bulbs in car parts stores as I believe that is what most of those bulbs were originally designed for however I noticed with my BK700 I couldn't accurately calibrate the thing with the modern bulb, had to use the older US made brass base #55 by GE.

Perhaps the Hickok isn't as fussy but something to be aware of.

good luck
