Peter Dahl's prices seem ok to me, Steve.  The mistake most buyers make 
is purchasing a transformer that is too large for the job at hand.  For 
example, using a "68-pounder" Dahl transformer for a pair of 3-500Zs is a 
hoot.  For example, using an 8171 in ssb mode, a 68-pounder will provide 
c. 7800v under load.  .
