[Heathkit] 54-59 Transformer Specifications / IG-82 request

[Tom Chesek]

Well I think that since the schematic shows 2 secondaries, one being 117V
and the other 6.3V, I would assume the 117V is 98 milliamps and the 6.3V is
3.8 amps.  Apparently the Parts Master Files shows the secondary values only
and "assumes" 117VAC primary. At my first glance I thought the primary was
117VAC 98 milliamps and the secondary 6.3VAC 3.8A which wouldn't compute but
I think you now have your answer to the specs on that transformer.
