I am working on a 38-5. The first thing I did was to measure the power transformer resistances. They all were about 50% high. The number on the transformer is not the ono of the options listed for a 38-5. The one I have is a part number 32-7598N with what appears to be a date code of 8-37. Is that an acceptable replacement? What should the impedance read?

Thanks,
TerryMSU
