Size matters!

I got my 7500W oil filled modulation transformer for a song since nobody 
else wanted it due to size and problem moving it. Backed up my 1954 
F-350 to the dock and picked it up with the 1 ton engine hoist mounted 
in the bed.

I dont have to worry about a perfect match either or needing a 
modulation reactor with the 304TL's as that sucker just wont saturate.

I don't know, ~$600 and a little elbow grease sure beats buying a new
transformer (non-pole pig) at half those ratings.  Adding a secondhand
variac would make it extremely versatile, and still keep the cost under 
a
new one.  Just something to think about.
