Forum rules
The following requirements must be followed when advertising personal antique radio / TV / audio / phono items (such as discussed in the forums here) for sale in the classifieds forum::
- Titles must START with : FS (for sale) or WTB (want to buy) or Trade or Free at the beginning of the title..
- FS posts must have an "asking" price and offers may be sent by PM. Are you parting something out? ... price each major part (not things like screws and nuts)
- There must be a location somewhere in the ad or the members profile (City & State or Zip Code are the minimum requirement).
- Ads are limited to two per day, and may not be bumped sooner than 7 days after the last post to the thread.
- No outside sales links are allowed other than to pictures of actual items being sold. No links allowed to eBay, Craigslist etc.
- This is NOT a discussion forum. If you're not buying or supplying or suggesting a relevant solution, don't post - send a Private Message. Comments on pricing will be deleted.
- First to post to an item for sale stating "I WILL TAKE IT" it is first in line. Subsequent claims will be followed in the order they are posted. Claims to "Take it" can be conditional on unknowns such as shipping costs.
- Any "PM sent" posts without posting a reason for the PM will be deleted as they are meaningless to anyone else reading the thread.
- Once a deal is made, edit the title to say so and the thread will be locked
If your thread or post disappears - read the rules again - no warnings or explanations will be given when threads or posts are deleted.

Need an audio output transformer for a Tom Thumb 528, coat pocket size 4 tube radio.
Their parts list shows it as TO-2123, it is fed from a 1AG4, and the secondary measures 2.2 ohms.

a 10K impedence primary/3.2 secondary should work.
Now go find one, fities.

Now go find one, fities. *Gasp* you mean you don't have one of these creatures floating around in your considerable stock of 1950's parts?  But thanks for the guidance on what the primary should be. bills wrote: I have a small radio shack audio output transformer maybe 3/4" square. not sure of the value I you think It will work let me know and I will try to find it an check the values. yours for cost of shipping . I think it is this one (link) http://www.radioshack.com/product/index ... d=2103254#bill Thank you for the offer, Bill. If it's the one you referenced, however, they show these specs; 1,000-ohm center-tapped primary 8-ohm secondary If you have a way to measure the impedance of yours, and it it closer to what R/T stated, please advise.

Hi Tom,
definitely not much room. The original measures 1 - 1/16 wide x 3/4 high x 3/4 wide.

Bumpity bump bump, still looking for this little guy. Miniature audio output transformer, 1 x 3/4 x 3/4 inch, 1300 ohm primary to a 2 ohm secondary. Apparently about a 25.5:1 turns ratio. If you have a parts set using a 3V4 with the smaller transformer, it would work. Will trade a Transistor radio, or pay in real money!

I have a NOS UTC SO-4, rated 30k to 50 ohms which is 24.5:1 turns ratio. It's small enough (cute little thing) and probably cost more than that whole radio originally, but what the heck, I've never needed it.

Thanks for the reply, Alan. Please check your PM.
I'm just wondering if a 50 ohm secondary would match up to a PM speaker.
