The 44 is a 6.3 volt 0.25 amp higher current and usually indicates
more
heat being dissipated.
I will stick with the 755. The brightness on the TT amp and Omni
meters
appear to match that on the 755 in the auto tuner.
The 51 is 12 Volt and a rare one to find these days.
How much more long life would the bulb have if a 51 was
substituted? Yes
I may have a few of these around as well. I took apart and fixed a
few of
those radios in the 60s. Tvs had these as well to light up the
channel
dial.
What tube did they put one of these lamps in the circut to control
the
voltage/current to it? Been way to long.
Keep The Faith, Jim K9TF/WA9YSD
