I found the user manual for the thing online. It turns out they went through a
bit of trouble to find a flyback transformer that does *not* have a built in HV
diode, unfortunately that makes this thing a little less useful. You'd have to
add a HV diode to the output.

It also doesn't have a focus voltage tap. Ramsey doesn't include the schematics
in their online manuals, but they do have a picture of the PCB.

You'd need some way of coming up with the other voltages. It's becoming much
less useful as an HV replacement.
