Do you have a volt-ohmmeter, digital (DMM) or analog?
1946 Philco radios generally do not use cloth covered wiring; the insulation on the wires is plastic and does melt easily when overheated. So...yes, if you have melted leads coming from the power transformer, then that is definitely not a good thing. Audio output transformers generally do not run hot, but anything is possible.
