grundig: 210; Satellit

I understand that this radio uses two 6V 30mA light bulbs, possibly, the OSRAM 2306.

What are other replacement light bulbs that can be used for this radio, that are OEM, and where can they be purchased?

Other than using an eraser (for soft grafite) to clean the drum and using a cremolin based contact cleaner, what are other things that should be done for maintenance of this solid state master piece of 20'th century technology?

BTW The antenna for the Grundig Satellit 800 uses the same antenna as the 210 and can be purchased from Eton, USA.

Hello,

according to the schematics, the Grundig Satellit 208/ 6000 and 210/ 6001 use a 7V/60mA bulb.
A 30mA light bulb would be a bit too dark (I tried by accident). You can get an exact replacement at http://www.buerklin.com - the part number is 33G131. Here is a photo of such a bulb:



Btw. Buerklin has a very large and useful selection of small bulbs.

Best Regards
Michael
