Well, rats. The folks at Moyer have already confirmed that they do not have any of this model of IF transformer in stock. I’ll have to dig up some new leads to expand my search. Best case, I find one. Next best case, Mark Oppat is still offering the 32-4174 which I can make work with minor modifications. Next in line will be to design one from scratch. And, should the apocalypse happen first, my last attempt will be to burn the cabinet for warmth and then to have Pink Floyd scream from the top of the City Plex towers, where KTSO is broadcast here in Tulsa 
I know that, with enough patience, I’ll find this part. As Jim Koehler said to me over the phone last week, I simply haven’t found someone with big enough of a junk pile yet!
