Thx bowtied, I have a local source for one, but getting mine out was such a PIA that I was hoping to NEVER have to do that again, so I am looking to maybe modify a NEW core of equal size or something to that effect, that will last another 10+ years. The tubes are good, so I could solder them onto another core, but finding the perfect size is proving almost impossible so far.
