Okay, I put the standalone LOPT onto my square wave generator
(unfortunately my generator can only supply 30ma) so Im not sure that is
enough.
Here is the signal before attaching the LOPT.... 15KHz 9vP-P
Here is the primary with that signal attached... secondaries are exactly
the same waveform, yet in different ratios (and those ratios are not
correct)
Doesn't look right.
When I read a DC voltage on the Anode cap, I have 2.2VDC, pretty low. :-(
