Hi, I am restoring a S-38  Radio, the audio output transformer seems to have 
given up the ghost

Antique Electronics has a PT-983; 2.5 K primary and 8 ohm sec at 3  watts.  
Works with the following tubes:  35C3, 25C5, 25L6, 25EH5,  35EH5, 6CU5, 50A5, 
25A5, 12, 25 and 43.
 
However, I'm not really sure what tube the S-38 uses.  If it's a  35L6(35C5), 
it isn't listed.  The tube manual shows the load resistance for  a 35L6(35C5) 
is 2.5 K fixed bias, but 5 K cathode bias.
 
Someone with more experience may be able to tell you if this transformer  
will work in the S-38.
