Philco 511 transformer smell
#11

Well, let's assume the primary is 115 or so. Filament windings would probably be two, one for the 6.3 volt string, the other, more heavily insulated a 5.0 voltage for the rectifier. HV windings (sometimes red, red/yellow/red) should be very close when measured by a reasonably good meter out of circuit. These readings would be with the set operating normally under the designed load factors.
