[NJARC] GLORITONE RADIO

[Al Klase]

Hi Aaron and John,

I've been "reading the mail" on this one.  This is a pretty unusual 
setup.  The speaker field coil is NOT used as a choke in the power 
supply like you'd usually expect, but is connected between B+ and the 
2640 ohm resistor to ground.  The speaker field has an unusually high 
value of  11,700 ohms, plus it's tapped to provide screen voltage for 
the first two RF amps.  You're probably not going to find a speaker like 
that lying around.  If anyone else is reading along, see:  
http://www.nostalgiaair.org/Resources/708/M0040708.htm

I'd install a permanent magnet speaker of the appropriate size, and 
replace the field coil with resistors of approximately 9000 ohms (10 
watts) and 2600 ohms.(5 watts).  Look like the output transformer was 
attached to the original speaker.  If you have to replace, it should be 
about 7000 ohms to 8 ohms.

Regards,
Al
