After seeing that Hammond had taken over the Peter Dahl line, I wrote Hammond for price &
availability of the HO-13 transformer. (The Dahl catalog says the HO-10 & 10-13 are the same).
Here is the response I got:

Hello Doug,



That unit can be purchased online from our distributor, Digi-Key.  Here is a link:

We don’t have any on the shelf; lead time is about 4-6 weeks.



We do not offer rewinding services.  I believe there is a company in Maine that specializes in rewinding these types of transformers but the name escapes me.



Electrically, this would be an exact replacement to eh Heath.  But the build quality and materials are higher quality so this unit will last many, many years.
