116X schematic reliability
#1

Hello again,
As I was checking the 2nd IF transformer values I noted that the primary and the two secondaries all are marked as 3.2 ohms each. However, I get 11 ohms across the primary, the other values are correct at 3.2. Do I have a problem here or is the schematic wrong? Would it be better to ignore this if I get a decent plate reading on the associated 78 tube? Could a shorted trimmer capacitor cause this higher than advertised reading. Thanks, in advance, for assisting.
Marc
