this is probably  a western electric audio transformer  so this   goofus
thinks  he  is  going to snag an audio nut  with it...

the  guy is too  dumb to realize that the   audio quality  used  for  voice
type  air traffic   control or tactical  transmitters is in no  was going to
be using  the western electric  hi fi   quality transformer  as in a theatre
sound.

Sort of understandable; there was a time not so long ago that you

could have written "Western Electric" on a roll of toilet paper and

the Audio cattle would have crawled over ground glass to buy it.

Now-days, the audio herd has been burned so much by its "leaders"

(read side-show barker con-men), they've gotten a bit more "picky."

That, and as with our community, the younger people don't have the 

emotional ties to real, "manly" equipment.  The young prefer the plastic 

"Barbie gear" with all the expensive "features" (read "more stuff

to break"), just as do our young.
