Reading this thread, I can't help but wonder...what about the off-on switch? Is it good? Have you checked it? It should be "on" when any of the buttons are pushed in except for the "off" button.
Make sure the radio is unplugged, connect an ohmmeter across the terminals of the switch and push any button other than the "off" button and make sure it is OK before suspecting the transformer.
Of course, the transformer could have an open primary, or as Greg said, all of the secondaries could be open. Highly unlikely, but not impossible.
But do check the simple thing first (the switch) before suspecting a transformer.
