[Heathkit] Need DX-100 HV Xfmr

If you have the original and it is shorted here is a
"trick" that worked on my original DX-100 HV
transformer.

I removed it and then placed it upside-down on one of
the electric stove burners in the kitchen (made sure
my wife was out of the house for a few hours).  I
"cooked" it until the tar melted (was really "runny").
 Then I removed the transformer and let it sit for
about 24 hours until it had cooled down and the tar
again solid.

This "fixed" the short.  I put the transformer back in
the transmitter and it was still working when I gave
it away to one of my employees about 10 years later.

If this "fix" doesn't work, you have only spend a few
cents for the power to run your stove!  It is
definitely worth a try.
