[QUOTE="Family_Dog, post: 69327, member: 82"] I was wondering about those resistors. I cannot recall having ever seen an AC/DC radio using both resistors and resistive cable. Also, that cable seemed longer than the norm and looked to be in excellent condition for a resistive cable that would now be about 60 years old. The resistive cord also used to have a cloth covering and one could actually see the twisted shape of the inner wires. The cable in your pic looks like a rubber one appears to be thicker than the original cable would have been. Your plan to remove the resistors and replace them with your transformer makes sense. Is it an auto-transformer or an isolated one? -F_D [/QUOTE]
