Power transformer in a 12 volt/25 volt radio?
#8

So, one like this one?

http://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Hamm...hQYw%3D%3D

It has a CT on the 25 volt secondary, and is rated at 1 amp.

Along with a HV transformer. How much leeway do I have in voltage on the HV secondary. 320 VCT with a 6.3 filament winding is also a bit hard to find. I could make a solid state rectifier and rig up some sort of voltage dropping resistor set up, I suppose, if I'm forced to use a higher voltage. Might actually be better than a 6X5.

I've had this radio for about two years, so its not a giant hurry. I got it originally because it had a phono input and my daughter wanted one that she could use an iPod on. I had a little stereo to mono adapter made up that used Radio Shack mini audio transformers...they don't make the transformers anymore).

Absolutely no one is going to reverse engineer that circuit. Even the iron core is missing.RodB — 10:37 AM
