[Boatanchors] Transformers and Chokes Source

I had good luck powering a VF-1 with one out of a junk Heathkit 
Q-multiplier that I got at a fest (cheap).  Not a QF-1, obviously - no 
on-board power supply.  Pretty sure it was HD-11.

Maybe not much help in this case, but I mention it because something 
that you often see at hamfests for little or nothing and they're good 
for a lot of little projects.
