Just checked the output transformer and one half of the primary is open circuit

I used the good half of the primary to calculate the turns ratio and arrived at, about, 110:1 (I think it should be 100:1). I've got an output transformer, from a Pye Fenman II, which has a turns ratio of 93:1. I imagine this would be close enough?
The Black Box had a primary resistance of 1700Ω but the Fenman II has only 660Ω. I don't understand the significance of this DC resistance, hopefully somebody will explain
.
