1941 GE Model L-640 Help Needed
#9

I double checked underneath the chassis and sure enough there is an output transformer there the thing that I was thinking was the output transformer but wasn't sure, was indeed the output transformer as the wires coming up fromt the bottom to the top of the chassis went to the output transformer, what's weird is that off the positive side of the terminal strip where the output transformer and the speaker wires attach to there was a small black wire soldered to it that led to the outside of the chassis and that wire isn't on the schematic, any ideas as to what that wire might be? 

Also does anyone have a spare 5" 3.2 ohm Permanent Magnet type speaker that they could send me for this radio? I've looked online and and I can't find anything, not even on ebay, or could a 4 ohm speaker work there as well? If so I might have some better luck finding something.
