I think you may have a hard time finding one of those, unless you can find someone parting out a 70. And if you did find one, it would likely be open or fail very soon. This is a common problem. Usually though, it is the primary that is open due to corrosion and resulting in no plate voltage to the #24 RF tube. This coil can be rewound with some dexterity. See the information on this page. http://www.philcorepairbench.com/tips/svctip36.htm

If you decide not to rewind the coil, I think Ron still does these. See this page. http://www.philcoradio.com/rre/rewind.htm

Good luck with it.

Regards,

Ed
