Thanks a bunch.
On the OPT I had a 37-60 radio lined up from Ebay. Thought I would at least have some spare parts and possibly a speaker.
Either USPS lost the package or the vendor lost the radio and didn't know it. I got a refund but was going to see if it turned up again. There is a 37-62 on Ebay that has the same S-7 speaker, but the dial and power transformer don't match mine. $75 total is a little steep for just getting a speaker and a few tubes.
I've been studying tube theory and speakers on one or two web sites. http://www.radioremembered.org/edspeaker.htm
Trying to figure out the best solution. Would have liked to keep the speaker part somewhat original, since it is very visible, unlike the capacitors under the radio. If I can't I'll probably get that Edcor $38 OPT 7K to 4 ohm. I measured the existing OPT today. 2 3/8" spaced mounting screws, trans is 1 1/2" W and about 2" tall. Need to check possible new OPT.
