I've been waiting for the concise answer on this question! My thoughts are that the 25cycle xfmr is simply more efficient at 60cycle and has less voltage drop under load. I don't have much experience with these things. My only 25 cycle radio has a non-original 25 cycle replacement xfmr so I have nothing to compare to.
