[AMPS] Microwave Tranformers

[Mike]

Hello Pino,

Get a copy of QEX, Jan/Feb 1998, which has a great article by Randy, WI5W,
on using microwave oven transformers for a high voltage power supply.
Randy also explains how the transformers are constructed and used in
microwave ovens plus what has to be done to make them work in amateur radio
application.
