Replacement Power Transformer for HO-10

[Multi-Volti Devices]

Hello:

Many of you are probably reading more current copies of the ham mags than I,
but when I looked for Lucas, I could only find them in the magazines, not
even in the phone book. I think they are (used to be?) in Lake or Lake City,
MI, somewhere north of Ludington. I think it's the same city Doug DeMaw,
W1FB lived in (is he a silent key now?).

Someone (maybe Ron at RTO...don't remember) told me that the Lucas
replacement for the SB-610 was far from an exact replacement, requiring some
thought (I think the wiring colors made no sense), and I'm not sure if they
were physically compatible, but he said it was usable.

I haven't seen the Lucas product, just heard a comment. If Lucas doesn't
turn up in the mags, at least keep an eye out for someone doing business
from a 49xxx zip in Michigan (but not 49423, at least not yet anyway!).
