Hello everyone. I've been engaged in antique radio restoration for many years but I'm new to this forum.

I bought a 38-690 at an auction a couple years ago and have started to go through it. The power transformer that supplies the audio output stage has shorted (smoked) windings. According to the parts list (and per the markings on it) this is Philco part number 32-7887 (for 115 / 230 Vac, jumper selectable). But there's also a part number 32-7885 that is used in 115 Vac sets only.

Can anyone tell me if these were used in other models? Does anyone have a useable one? Or are they as uncommon as the 38-690 and I'm up a creek?

Thanks for any information.

Dave
