So it shows 103ma for the HV spec so I should be good. not sure what I will do I don't have anything in the radio it was given to me now I know why.

Yup 6V6.
If you are not in a hurry wait for a radio meet, club meeting, or hamfest. The 5v winding isn't a must as you could use a 6v rectifier tube w/a cathode like an 84 or 6X5 or silicon diodes. W/sd they have much less of a volt drop compared to tubes so you use a 500 or 550v hv winding @50ma.
Physically the Hammond may be a bit large, more current bigger the wire and core.

Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
