Today I have been trying to make the resistance measurements suggested by Michael Maurice and simpsons to check out the O/P transformer.

The thing that confuses me is that the resistances measured are in M ohms (ranging from 5 to 55M ohms). Only two measurements are in ohms. Surely the resistances I'm measuring should not be that high? I was expecting only hundreds of ohms.

I'll find my old DMM and make the measurements again.
