Default Hammarlund SP-210 ?

Good suggestion, I'll try it later and let you know.

I
found the filament xfmr first and tried it but it reduced volume so I
assume my radio which is non-military doesn't have 600 ohms like the
military manual I have. So I guess mine is commercial, either a
SP-200-SX or more likely a SP-210-SX and I think it has a 3.2 ohm
output transformer.
I can't find any info and I wonder if anyone knows for sure on the
commercial models output transformer's impedance.


What is the DC resistance across the output?

If you want to know FOR SURE, put the output on a scope with a 1K pot
in
parallel with it... tune to interchannel noise, and note the location
of
the peaks on the scope. Crank the pot up until the level is exactly
half
of what it was, then measure the value of the pot.
