Methinks it would be too big to fit the chassis and in doesn't have the 2nd 6v heater winding. No covering just solder terminal all along it. The Edcor is rated @ abt 10% more current which is a good thing and has the 2nd heater winding. It's just the HV winding is a little low in voltage. You probably could get by w/it if you got rid of the tube rectifier tube and went s/s (it has less voltage drop @ .5v, tube has roughly 50v or so).
> I have, near where I live. Haven't come up with any yet.
The one I was thinking of is up in the northeastern US.

Some of the fellas here have used them but I think your going to be up into the $100+ range.

When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
