speaker question.
#1

Does anyone know if the speaker from a 70 and 71 are the same? I am strictly talking about cathedrals. 
Thanks.

The 20,70,and 90 used several alliterations of the K speaker (sometimes called a pie pan speaker). It sports a painted brown or coated gray basket. The 71 uses a later K speaker that should work but ascetically is different. The 71 speaker may be hardwired in without a 4 pin plug. Ron would know better than I.

I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.

Now I think I've got!

Nope, the 71B used a K-7 speaker which has an 1125 ohm field coil. 20, 70 and 90 cathedral speakers all have 3100 ohm field coils.

Scroll down to, and download speakers.zip which was made in and intended for Microsoft Excel but also works in LibreOffice Calc and OpenOffice Calc.
