I have one of those NYAL Moscode Super-IT's...bought used in the 80's.
The HV winding opened...maybe excess leakage current to the photoflash cap filtering the rectified winding.
At the time a replacement was available for $50...I figured it would happen again & I should just go with an outboard transformer...which led to more distractions.
Later yet I spoke with the designer who told me how much B+ headroom I need if I want to just use an outboard preregulator, and some improvement suggestions. I will worry about just fixing what's broke & not breaking it in new ways.
