I'm restoring a Philco 660, after recapping and replacing out of tolerance resistors, I was able to receive 
Stations across all bands, but noticed that at the low end of the AM band reception was poor. I found the antenna transformer was open to ground.I would like some advice to repair the transformer as it 
Looks very delicate and I don't want to create more problems that exists now..thx...Gus
