Previously on the TCML, episode "Adventures in SRSG"...

I had a chance to diagnose last night and found that one of my 15/30
Franceformers did indeed die in the sacred duty of the coil. It is odd
though, I apply 120v and it hums like it is working, it won't draw and arc
anywhere...so I ramped up the power with a variac and at 120v my DVM only
showed 280v on the secondaries (I forgot to check each HV leg to ground
though). I am guessing this indicates some turns on the primary melted and
shorted together. Furthermore, I am assuming there are no quick
fixes...great...now I have a reason to attempt my first depotting...is this
still the most current/best method?

So back to a vacuum quenched gap for now.
