Just to close the chapter on the trouble I was having with the KFL1-4
windings of T1/T2, thanks to everyone on the list who replied.

Since I wanted to triple check the windings,  I discovered something that
might help all who want to check transformer windings, esp. if they had
similar "second thoughts" about whether what they did was correct or not. If
you have, or can get your hands on, a red #25 filter for a 35mm (or larger)
camera, and view the windings through the filter, the green windings will
really stand out. This is often a problem if you have had a mental lapse --
believe me, it gets worse with age -- and need to double check those
transformer winding, hopefully before you install the transformer on the
board!

Again, thanks to all who responded.
