My field coil is bad. I am still hoping to find an original, but if I can't I will go with a fitting Philco speaker, 125C trans and resistor as needed for coil. I checked out the trans on the Hammond site and though that one will do. At this time I'm in no hurry.
I have restored several Philcos since retiring as a hobby (chassis and cabinet) plus other brands. Sad I have so many and don't listen to any of them. The only one I listen to is my Stromberg Carlson SR406 console at Christmas time.
BTW I checked Amazon for that trans and found it was 40.00 higher than Mouser. Gotta keep on your toes when dealing with Amazon.
