[Milsurplus] BC-186

Gang,

A recent rearrangement of the radio collection has me considering waking 
up my BC-186.  This is the TRF-autodyne receiver that is part of the 
SCR-178 mule-pack station.  My set was partially modified, and has octal 
sockets where the 30's are supposed to go.  I have replacement sockets, 
but there are some other problems lurking here.

RF transformer, T-2, Type C-134, has an open winding and is resisting 
coming out of its can.  Does anyone have a spare?  For that matter, are 
there other coils for this receiver beyond the 2400-3700 KC range?

I'm also in the market for the 5-pin power connector.

Nice pix on NS1W's page if you're curious:

Thanks,
Al
