R-90 radio transformer
#5

Hi and welcome to the Phorum,

Common sense dictates a few things. A 60cy transformer will work fine even better than the 80cy one at 60. If you have a schematic for this set post it in the Electronic Restoration section and we'll have a look at it to see what it's going to take. If not there is a couple of things to determine the voltage. Does the 2ndy have more than 1 winding? What sort of rectification setup does it use, 1/2 wave, full wave, full wave bridge, or doubler? What is the voltage of the dial light?

Sorry I thought this was posted in the wanted section. My mistake.

When my pals were reading comic books
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.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got it!

Terry
