John,

I have a question as I'm a hacker at this. If the vc impedance is 1ohm and it's connected to a secondary that is designed for a 8 ohm load. The primary is design for a 7000 ohm load. By connecting a load to the secondary that is 1/8 what it's designed for how does that effect the impedance (reflected) on the primary?
When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!
