Hi John, I checked my Radio Parts Master catalogue for 1964, as well as the catalogue sections of the 1948 & 1940 ARRL RADIO AMATEUR'S HANDBOOK --- nothing, nil, zilch, nada...
I wonder if that part number is really a National number, per se...? Perhaps it's the part number of the MANUFACTURER who originally purchased the part for his OEM application... Hammond Manufacturing did the same thing with their transformers: they were custom made on occasion for a specific end user in quantity, with a unique part number affixed to the transformer that meant nothing, specifically, to Hammond itself, once the contract ran out (or at least I've been told as much by a Hammond engineer). Good luck, in any event...! ~73~ Eddy VE3CUI - VE3XZ *************************************** ----- Original Message ----- From: "John King" <k5...@yahoo.com> To: <amradio@mailman.qth.net> Sent: Friday, December 26, 2008 11:22 AM Subject: [AMRadio] Need help identifying National part > Have New Old Stock National part number SA1288. Appears to be a transformer with two spade bolts to bolt to chassis and has the National diamond emblem which has "NC" in the diamond. It is tar filled and has five black leads coming out of it.
