[Amps] Peter Dahl / Harbach SB-220 transformer

[Bill VanAlstyne W5WVO]

I'm interested in hearing from anybody who is knowledgeable about the SB-220 replacement transformer by Peter Dahl that Harbach is offering -- specifically, wehether it has significantly higher power capacity than the OEM Heathkit transformer and/or a higher voltage output. They also say you have to cut a hole in the inside top cover to accommodate its size, which is not a big deal for me -- but if it isn't a SIGNFICANTLY more powerful transformer, there's no real reason for me to shell out the bucks for one. I guess the short form of the question is: Is this transformer a replacement or an upgrade?
