Hello list,

I have got a dead radio clock--Radio Shack model 12-1950 (Chromatic
290). The transformer primary is open. Fortunately, and to great
compliment to Radio Shack, the complete parts list for the clock is
available online at the Radio Shack support page:http://support.radioshack.com/parts/25372.htm

Unfortunately, I don't live in the US, and can't visit a Radio Shack
store to buy a replacement. I'd like to obtain the electrical
characteristics (to look for a similar transformer locally). Anyone
knows what are the electrical characteristics of this transformer?

The parts list says: 11281672 TRANSFORMER,POWER UL APP TA0361

The transformer is center-tapped, on the transformer there are
letters: CEFV3510-9 1-7399

Thanks!

Look for an open thermal fuse on the primary side, you can bypass it
to get the unit to work temprarily and to measure the secondary
voltage. Is it 120V or 240 V primary??
