[Hallicrafters] SX-99 tranny update

[Rodger]

Hi Bob,

Glad you figured out the mystery! Enjoy your "new" radio.

I would check the rectifier tube, filter caps, cathode bypass cap on the
audio output and grid coupling cap to the audio output just to make sure
that one of these does not cause your new transformer to have a problem.  I
assume the SX-99 has a line fuse, Hallicrafters seemed sort of hit and miss
with fusing some of their radios.  If not, an inline fuse (probably 2 amps)
can be added below chassis without the need to drill any holes.

73, Rodger WQ9E
