[Boatanchors] Power Transformer Specs Needed

[Mark Bell]

Thanks Mike;  the tranny came from a HB linear (quad 811's).   It was found in the back corner of our club's cabinets, and looks to have been unused for decades.   So, CEV is just on the power tranny.

The wiring on the linear is horrible and quite unsafe, so I'm looking at disassembling the linear and, if all the  parts are good,  rebuilding it.   Could part it out,  but I hate to do that to anything that stands a chance of living again....

  Mark,

  I don't have the specs on the transformer but CEV is the Navy Contractor Code for Esterline-Angus Co.  Strangely enough and for totally unknown (to me) reasons, the Signal Corps also used the Navy code on parts and equipment nameplates intermittently through WW-II and into the 50's.  If the nameplate only says Signal Corps US Army and has a colon (:) following the serial number followed by two, three or four letters beginning with "C", that's the Navy code for the radio manufacturer.  Common on components of a lot of well know sets including SCR-274N, BC-611, etc.
