I know...what was I thinking. I have another model 89L (1934 Code 123, Run 13). I have completed the wood restoration, had the speaker re-coned, changed out all the caps, etc. I then brought the beast up on my variac. I should have known...nothing. I proceeded to check some voltages. I had no plate voltage on my 44 (RF) or my 36 (DET.OSC). Low and behold, I have not one but two open coils. One coil open on the Detector and one open on the Oscillator. Now that I have you all sympathizing with me, are there replacement coils available somewhere? I have not attempted to re-wind a coil, and I am a little intimidated. I guess as a last resort I would re-wind them.
As always, any help from the phorum would be appreciated!
