I think a lot of it has to do with the year and the model, I always thought it was models like the 84 that were more prone to having smoked power transformers then the 70 series consoles. If you want to know a make of radio notorious for having transformers go up in a smoke show then the order of the big black dial would fit that roll much more so then Atwater Kent, the current rating on a brand Z power transformer is marginal at best.
