[Amps] Buck boost transformer

[Gary Schafer <garyschafer@comcast.net>]

How would it work if you used a plate transformer with a little higher 
output than wanted. Install the secondary of a small buck transformer in 
the primary of the plate transformer.
In the primary of the buck transformer place a resistor of selected size.

Would this provide some regulation of the high voltage?
As the supply gets loaded the primary current increases and the current 
in the buck transformer also increases. But the resistor in the primary 
of the buck transformer would cause the buck voltage to drop. As the 
buck voltage drops the output voltage of the plate transformer would 
increase to compensate.

Anyone ever tried this?
