If anyone has a transformer assembly for a Panasonic RX-5050 that I could buy/trade,please let me know. It looks like this.
Thanks!

gee what kind of keyboard is that?
oh and no I dont have one of these.

It's a Mac keyboard.
Too bad you didn't have had a transformer then I would have two fully functioning RX-5050's.
Thanks.

ok I dont have a Mac.
well I do have a transformer but not for that.
What is wrong with your 'part' there ?

That is cool.
The transformer is shorted out.
It was accidentally hooked up to 220 volts without the voltage selector set to the correct voltage. Not by me though.

well if you are not too particular you can get another transformer [ not original ] an install it in it's place to make it work - radioshack sell's them you just need a 12v tap and a full wave bridge an maybe a filter capacitor an you are back in business...

Yes,I thought about this too.
But I'm just trolling and waiting to see if someone has an original transformer assembly,rather than cobble it together.
It is such a minty nice boombox,I would like to keep it original.
Thanks for the advice though.

You Rock Joyce,thanks!

You're so welcome skippy1969! I was glad to help my S2G buddy out, as you have helped me out with trading me the Panasonc RX-5180 back for the two walkmans. You are such a nice guy Scott. This is how S2G should always be, helping each other out and being respectful of each other. Scott is a star member of S2G in my book!

Awe Geez,thanks Joyce!
