Sparks-Withington
#1


I have a S-W Spartan Jr. Model 400 (according to the chassis plate.) I understand the S-W Models 410/420 are identical or darn close. I do not have the schematic. Looking the unit over I notice the covers on the main power xfrmr have been removed and several wires were crudely spliced to the winding, one has fallen off and it is virtually impossible to resolder it.

Are these transformers still available or am I out of luck. Also where is the power on/off switch. The volume control does not appear to serve double duty as volume/power on/off ??

I had an exchange with another forum member Bandersen who has restored one of these radios (beautiful job).
