Floyd:

I had a BUNCH of those several years ago. They were all made and sold by Fair Radio 
Sales, and the transformers they used were specially made for Fair, by whom, I don't know.

I still have two of those.

Fair also made some ARC-5 receiver power supplies which were mounted in gray steel 
boxes and had an ON/OFF switch, a BFO ON/OFF switch, a volume control and a speaker 
with a matching-transformer. These connected to the receivers through a cable which 
terminated in the correct connector.

I had several of those too, but sold all but two on eBay.

I won't sell those I have left now, but you can probably get them from my widow when I kick.
