John,

I did post another wiring illustration from the schematic page on the
binaries. Please have a look and see whether it clarifies anything. I will
post a photo of the x-former in place, though I doubt it's of much help.
Thanks.

Dave

Hi John ... well you found him ... actually a friend of mine had them
wound ... for his E-155 and my E-155 and a few spare parts ... and yes
my buddy Kim Herron has a couple cores rewound that are left... he had
the transformer company in Grand Rapids, Michigan rewind them for us..

and yes its a 3 winding arrangement... nothing like a normal
transformer..
so do you have your iron core?

Hi John,

It's not my radio, Randy and I were simply discussing over on
alt.binaries.pictures.radio how the "Stewart-Warner reactance dimmer"
might actually work. This discussion is the result of a post by "Dave
Burson" on alt.binaries.pictures.radio who has a S-W model R-1822 with
an open primary on the reactance control "transformer". I cross posted
the discussion here because I remembered that someone here had talked
about fixing a similar problem on a GE set before. Dave hasn't
responded yet with any information on the physical construction of the
S-W "transformer", whether it's construction is similar to the GE
"transformer" or is different.


Regards,

John Byrns
