Heirloom 41-250
#15

Hello Arran,
Thanks for the pointers. I went through everything again and things look different this time. Here we go:
36.7 ohms for the primary, should be 12
778 for secondary, should be 310
403 for the upper half, should be 160
375 for the lower, should be 150
.6 for the filament., is correct

the numbers do not match those found in the 41-290 restoration presentation found here
http://antiqueradios.com/forums/viewtopi...69&start=0

They also don't match what I find in the diagram for my radio, which I downloaded.

Now, I know that this is not the original trans and I do not know what the specs are supposed to be for this one, a 32-8098M. I also don't know if I can get away with these specs, even though the radio must have worked at one time the way it was. Maybe they changed something else to make it work. I do not know enough about what I am doing to figure that out yet. What I do know is that when something is put together they way it was intended, I should not have to worry about that.

My question now then is, can I proceed or should I be looking for a correct trans?
