[Collins] 70K-2 PTO coil

[pete wokoun, sr.]

For those who fix Collins S-line/KWM-2s with the 70K-2 PTO:
  I have now been involved in 2 repairs in the last 3 months with 
inoperative 70K-2 PTOs that have a defective T301 coil.  Seems the coil 
between the plate and output tap opens up.  The open appears in the coil, 
not at the lug ends.  This seems like a high failure rate so far and am 
wondering if others are seeing this.  Of course, there's not too much that 
can go wrong in these.  Does anyone know of a source for these coils or do 
we just keep looking for replacement PTOs.  If my experience is typical, 
there must be a lot of inoperative ones out there just waiting for new 
T301s...anyone want to try making a bunch of 'em.
