Mark,

I don't have the specs on the transformer but CEV is the Navy Contractor Code 
for Esterline-Angus Co.  Strangely enough and for totally unknown (to me) 
reasons, the Signal Corps also used the Navy code on parts and equipment 
nameplates intermittently through WW-II and into the 50's.  If the nameplate only says 
Signal Corps US Army and has a colon (:) following the serial number followed 
by two, three or four letters beginning with "C", that's the Navy code for 
the radio manufacturer.  Common on components of a lot of well know sets 
including SCR-274N, BC-611, etc.
