Default Re: Hallicrafters SX-25 Rebuild: New Mains Transformer Questions.

I like the Antique Radio forum too - to me this forum and the Antique Radio forum are proof there are radio nerds world-wide .
My friend who has over 300 radios in his collection jumped on me about risking one of my Type 83s yesterday as they are expensive. I have seen them as cheap as $20.00 USD but all of the ones I have were north of $40-$50 USD.

And I have been trying to break the American habit of calling valves "tubes" for many years now. Calling them tubes seems to take away from them the fact they ARE valves electronically speaking most of the time.
