Except for a few really rare and old tubes, I haven't seen many transistor replacements.
The few I saw were oke for an old TRF receiver from the twenties, but
I wouldn't use them in a modern radio like your father's.

Judging from the tube lineup in your fathers radio,
it would probably make more sense to replace any faulty tube by
a real vacuum tube, since they're still readily available.

They're offered on the internet, (even by a few people on this forum),
and on the many radio flea-markets.
You could even buy a spare set, and give your radio an extra 30 years of life.
With a bit of care, the radio can still be around after you and I have long gone.

Though be warned that if your radio needs a repair or tuneup, there's often more then just
tubes that need to be replaced.

Should you come across some generic solid state circuit that can be setup to
match any of the typical tube parameters, I'd be interested too.

Or maybe John Hupse can cough up a circuit?
