[Boatanchors] WTB - National NC-300 Parts

Hi Folks,

I've discovered my "technician-special" NC-300 has a couple of antenna 
transformers burned out.  They're about the size of 1 watt carbon 
resistors and are located in the third bandswitch compartment close to 
where the wire attaches from the antenna terminal on the rear apron.  
The parts info is as follows:

ID     Description                  National Part No.
-----------------------------------------------------
T7     160M Antenna Transformer     B15294
T10    80M Antenna Transformer      B15295

It looks as if someone has transmitted into the front end of the 
receiver.  The transformers are charred and show no continuity when 
checked with an ohmmeter.

Does anyone have a "parts" NC-300 they could get these transformers 
from, or know of someone who might have them?  I suppose as a last 
resort I could try rewinding these transformers if I could get an 
accurate count of turns and find the proper gauge of magnet wire, but 
I'd much prefer just replacing them if at all possible.

Thanks for any help!

Mike, WB0LDJ
