I really appreciate the info. I'll have to do some studying. Been out all day tearing out a rotten handicapped ramp at my father's place. I'm 66 yrs old. I know basic electronics but more a part exchanger. Don't have much experience/knowledge of audio systems. I do read all of the warnings about not powering up the radios without doing repairs.
I got the transformer info from the Philco library. Just need to understand the relation between the tube output and the transformer. I noticed a "pig in a poke" parts radio on Ebay. Might do that. This is my father's radio that I used to listen to in the bedroom when I was a kid. Not planning on selling it, don't mind spending money to get it working. If the transformer looked somewhat similar to the original I wouldn't mind. Some have a lot of wires.
