Sega Star Trek power strapping

Normally Sega says strap to pins 1 and 3 on the transformer for 110V.

Power where I am is at 120-122V, and according to the G08 FAQ is one
of the contributing factors to popping deflection transistors (say when
the voltage jumps, etc).

The G08 FAQ mentions in there that a tech used 110V tap and 240V tap
yielding a 130V winding. However, according to my sega manuals, the
strapping goes as follows:

1 + 2: 100V
1 + 3: 110V
1 + 4: 220V

(note, my docs indicate no such thing as a 240V winding).

However, by my estimation/calculation/guestimation, pins 2 + 4 would
yield a 120V primary winding... just perfect.

I arrived at this by knowing 1+2 is 110 v 1+3 is 110V thefefore 2+3 is
10V. now 1+3 is 110v 3+4 would be 220v - 110v (1+4 - 1+3) = 110V so
3+4 + 2+3 = 110V + 10V = 120V.... seem logical ?

Can anyone confirm this ?

Also, if the G08 FAQ maintainer is listening... might want to check docs
on the power, as I can find no indication of wiring for 240V.
