[NLRS] WTB: Isolation transformer - 110vac

Your bias supply should require minimal current. If you have a
grounded filament supply or an unused low voltage winding you could
use a small transformer such as 110 to 6.3V 0.3A and connect it to the
filament winding to generate your bias voltage. Has the added
advantage that it is very small and you can probably hack it together
from just about anything you find. I would avoid this technique if
your filament supply is significantly above or below ground for any
reason.
