Help with Model 60
#1

Now that I've fixed enough items that I can actually receive radio stations, and while waiting for some wire to rewind coils properly, I have two issues where I need some advise.

First, the audio output transformer primary is open. Has anyone rewound this transformer and if so, how hard was it? I'm using a filament transformer and spare speaker temporarily.

Second, the radio dial is warped in a few places, which I assume happened due to heat. I am thinking about heating this dial with a low heat source and trying to flatten it out by placing a weight on it. Does this make sense?

Thanks.

Harv
