Thanks Doug, I have read that the power transformer is a problem. This one was replaced sometime in its life, I noticed it when I pulled the amp section for transport, the same with the speaker. I need to give it a good once over for sure, I moved it to my shop yesterday and when I have time I'll check the speaker Power resistors...etc. I did pull the 50 tube out and wrapped it very nicely after checking the filament..which is good, what a break. Supposedly, The original owner listened to it every day until he became too sick to care for himself, then it was put into storage. It will be an adventure.
Thanks again for the info Doug,
Glenn

Happily back in Illinois..not.

Renovated Radios do carry what you need. As for the voltage, a wire should be at least 300V-rated.morzh — 11:13 PM
