If we're talking 25" amplifone vs. 19" Wells Gardner, I believe they are
the exact same model. (although I don't believe we've discussed this on
the list).
Triad-Utrad 9A2806-001-A. With the letter "A" most likely being
equivalent to other revisions including B thru D (and possibly more).
The two 25" amplifones I inspected both had the "D" revision. And I
have seen the "D" revision on more than one 19" WG6100.

As far as comparing the yokes from the 19" models, they certainly don't
look the same and have different resistances across the windings. (this
was discussed on the list) And I believe they were designed for
different deflection angles, but convergence may be possible with a
little hard work/luck. I believe Jon Raiford did not find the two yokes
interchangeable when using them on a 25" tube for his Major Havoc
project. After finding that the yoke from a 19" amplifone couldn't be
moved close enough to the tube for proper convergence, he opted for the
yoke from the 19" WG6100 with greater success.
