I have some loose ones send me your address. 

As far as getting the old one out:
Pull the rack off, did the slug break or the spring wire that goes into 
it?  I have been successful at soaking them with penetrating oil and 
then use a dental pick, drawing it out through the top. 

The problem is the transformer in screwed into the chassis by a 4-40 
screw that is under the slug.  The other option is to completely remove 
the RF deck and back the mounting screw from the bottom, this is not an 
easy task either.  I you accomplish this the transformer can be removed 
from the chassis to work on it.

Nt any easy options ... lot's of luck ... tom, N3LLL
