Philco First Audio Replacement
#1

Hi, I am working on a Philco model 90 Cathedral radio. This has been a real work in process. I have successfully replaced the main transformer, speaker and all bad wiring. By the way, I started a thread on trying to sort out the transformer windings and I got called away to work for several days so I did not get back. I am sorry I did not close that thread. I did not mean to disrespect those that gave direction. I respect you guys a lot. I figured the transformer out and it tests perfect. The last problem I have is the first audio transformer is burned out too. I have been everywhere to try to find a used part and I am giving up. My question is, is there a new transformer out there that would work as a replacement for the first audio. This is a push pull twin 45 tube model.
