I build 10-11 volt power supplies for my repeater's transmitters. Since they pull around 20-25 amps I've been using 35 amp/12v rated transformers and pulling a few windings off to get 10 volts AC. The vender (Hosfelt) ran out of these and I'd like to get at least one more. The part numbers and other lables on the transformer are:

430-7001-4, EIA 6-9534, CLASS 180 H1 MEXICO. They are about 4 1/2" x
4", etc. Searcing on the web did not bring any current items to me. If you have any leads please email me snipped-for-privacy@yahoo.com or visit my site

Some people rewind microwave oven transformers for this sort of thing, you don't need many secondary turns to get 10v out of one.

Dunno about the US, but in the UK having a bespoke mains transformer built isn't *that* expensive. More than surplus stock though obviously.
