I saw this radio on E Bay. I'm glad you got it. My 37-670 console does not have the export transformer either. You should consider yourself lucky your kitty allows you to work on any radios in her house :-).
Ron, how would you compare the operation of this radio when it's working properly to other Philco radios with about as many tubes? Tom
