1st band-pass transformer failure

Been a bit since I posted. The set worked great for one good 10-hour watch session. Then on the next power up I had no color. I assume the surgery I had to do on the 2nd band-pass transformer didn't hold up. You can see a few posts back the repair I did. I'll try another poke with my soldering iron at it....

As for replacements there are some bandpass transformers that look similar on ebay. How critical is it that this needs that exact RCA 102259? Seems like that is unobtanium. I asked Moyers already.

Does anyone have a scrapped chassis for the CTC-5 deluxe that they could pull a replacement from?

Thanks!
Matt Davala
