Anyone have specs on this?  -  a google check yeilded other PAECO 910 - series units
but not this one. 

I haven't applied low voltage to any of the windings yet, to see winding ratios 
(which would quickly give me an idea of its intended use)
but can rough-estimate current ratings by wire lead gauge and
VA by xfrmr size and weight (probably in the 50-80 VA class).  
Doesn't seem to conform to transfomer color codes in a 1955 ARRL
handbook, though 910- 16++  series I've seen 
on the internet were power (plate and filament units) -- but " 910-xxx.." may apply to the
class/type of product the xfrmr was used in.
My first reaction


There's paper a small paper label pasted to the base "JUN 60
                                                                                                   7637"
--which could well be a specific outfit-user's dating & designation.

Looks to be high quality -- not suprising for a HP component.

Thanks in advance.
