OK. Let me describe more of the sorry shape we are enjoying here.
1. IF transformer coil between 6D6 and det 75, the primary of it, is open. Good news is, it simply tore of, I was able to locate the stub and unwind it a bit, it is a litz, so the coil is good, need to restore the wire. Otherwise would be bad, those criss-cross wound waxed litz coils are bad to restore. I suspect a certain someone whose name we will not mention tore it while trying to recap. This is not likely to break by itself.
2. The rat eaten one.....it has to coils, I was hoping it were one, it is the antenna transformer. Both damaged.
3. The 3 section coil on top, the large section damaged.
4. The 6D6 tube was broken. Not just that, I was going a bit nuts trying to figure wiing only to realize that someone, who we will not name, swapped the 6D6 and 75 so the wiring didn't jibe.
The tube is a minor thing, but three coils are a serious hurdle.
