MM Substitute for a Drake 1202-118

So the original PT (Drake 1202-118) that used to give live to my April '72 born 1987 lead head is long gone and has been replaced by SOMETHING. O.K. it's laying down all right, but i guess that's the only link to the original. I'd like to see a MercuryMagnetics in there but WHICH one??
Has anyone had to struggle with that Question before? Thanks

I think that if you ask Mr Wallace nicely he might be able to sell you one of his excellent 1202-118 clones

Say Brian, have You settled Your mind on a specific B+ for Your 1202-118 clones or do You craft Your PTs with various B+ values ? thanks, Chris

The voltage that should be found using the 1202-118 is in the 420VDC range.
