Transformer P/N 32-7887 - am I up a creek?
#5

I'd say this set is well worth that. Over the years I've encountered relatively few problems with transformers and inductors (aside from open inter-stage transformers in some of the earliest sets) and generally when I've found one, the set's value would not warrant the expense of a custom part so I'd either design a work-around and hide it as best I could, or relegate the set to "parts". I think I'll have them wind it with just a simple, single primary for 115V then mount the jumper & rectifier bracket on it so it looks like the original even though the jumper isn't functional.

I haven't poked around this forrm enough to know how / where to post a picture. I can post one of the chassis and the transformer(s) if you're curious.
