Hi Arran,
I know some time has gone by since your post but for $65 you scored. I have a 5T7, similar chassis to yours but has octal tubes , all metal. Mine was a gift from another collector for fixing his dad's PT94. Mine had a bad transformer, but I scored a good replacement on ePay.

One easy trick after measuring voltages and leakage is to run it with all the tubes out. the transformer should not get overly warm. Mine would burn if touched.

Best Regards,

John "MrFixr"
