[Hallicrafters] SX-43 - more questions

[Tim Kass]

OK, the SX-43 I am restoring also has some mods done, the rectifier tube was 
replaced with a plug in diodes installed in the bottom of the tube socket, 
common, I have seen these many times before...but also next to it are 2  OA2 
regulator tubes...a good mod I think but is this documented somewhere?  
Also...since the power transformer is bad, looking at it compared the other 
SX-43 I have reveals its likely a replacement l...AND..this transformer has 
a variable pot built in to the top of it...have not seen that before...and 
it is not a mod to the transformer...so...someone replaced the transformer 
before with a variable one and added the 2 regulator tubes...so far that's 
the only obvious mods...needs recapped as well...actually both SX-43's 
do....I have seen on Ebay at times recap kits...its there a web site I can 
get these from?

Thanks in advance,,,

73, Tim K8WBL
