Help needed for Philco 49-1613
#8

I did look over the Hammond products but there where several issues. Couldn't find one w/two 6v heater windings. On the hv winding when select one w/a usable voltage rating the current was abt twice what is required for the circuit. That problem it's not a death nail but it makes the physical size larger. Overall I find them rather pricey.

Edcor Has a line on new transformers and can built a new one to your specs. I did find one that is pretty close a XPWR189. Only the hv winding is a bit low. It's 290 0 290 vs your 335 0 335 https://www.edcorusa.com/xpwr189 You may be able to inquire if they can add some more turns to get you up to 335vac per side. It's a special order anyway.

There was a fella that was rewinding but he retired and sold the biz so it's in transition at this time. Operation should be back on line in a month or two.

I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.

Now I think I've got!
