Just bought my first phonograph/radio and am completely new at this.  The previous owner tried to power the unit with duct tape around the power cord as the insulation had deteriorated but of course got a pretty good spark.  I’m replacing the power cord now but noticed something a bit strange (at least for me) in the middle of the cord.  Can anyone tell me what this is for and how to get a proper replacement?

I found that the wire insulation was burnt.  The fly back needs corona dope! Why would someone put that there?Platinumblonde36 — 01:09 AM
