I looked in my Merit catalog and they do list a replacement. It's an A-3003.

The A-3003 has a turn ratio of 1:4.2, the A-3006 that you have is 1:3.5.

www.oldradioparts.com has the A-3003 for $7.00. They have a $25 minimum order.

I may have to tweak the circuit with resistors inline with the new transformer to make it linear but I'm crossing my fingers it'll be ok as is.



Again I don't have a variac at home so I'll have to wait until tomorrow to fire it up and see what how I did.
