50Hz Transformer?

[Eric H]

I don't know what this came out of but I'm pretty sure it was some old TV chassis that was given to me, it's about twice as tall as the average TV transformer.

I've never (in person) seen a transformer in a TV that was this big (except some of the Sola's used in the Dumonts and they are arraigned differently).

Wiki says Much of So California apparently used 50Hz up till about 1948 so maybe it was used in something older than that, hopefully i didn't scrap a pre war chassis. Nah, I would have noticed that.

I've been kicking around the idea of getting a schematic and trying to build a tube amplifier sometime, maybe with 6BG6 outputs since I already have a pair of output transformers compatible with those, this might make a nice power source for that.
