OPT-102 - data? (Audio Electronic Supply)

[Cobra2]

Hi
I have a pair OP trafos; OPT-102, from Audio Electronic Supply ( http://www.audioelectronicsupply.com/ ) but they are no longer listed.
And my mails to them bounces...

Are they known? Good?

Found these again, an did some measuring;

Primary : B+ to plate; 75+ohm (plate to plate:150+ohm)
Sec: ~0,4(-)+0,4(-) (8ohm tap less than 1 ohm)

Used my signal-generator to feed the sec.(8 ohm tap) with 5V (500hz), and measured 45V + 45V (90V) on primary.

Does this make the trafo 90/5= 18:1? -or 45/5=9:1?

My AES catalog from 1994 lists the OPT-102 as a 25 Watt PP with a 6600 Ohm primary imp. However with your measurements I calculate that it is only 2592 Ohms! Primary volts divided by secondary volts, square that and then multiply by the secondary Ohms. 90/5=18, 18x18=324, 324x8=2592. If it is supposed to be 6600 Ohms, the voltage ratio should be approx. 28.7. Check your readings again.

So I tried other way around: 233V in A-A, gives 12,8V out on 8 ohm tap. This gives the same ratio...
