For cost reasons, Microwave oven xformers are optimized specifically for their use in a microwave oven.
They are OK as long as they supply their nominal power to a load.

In the standby mode, they get *very* hot.

I need a small supply (~ 1.5KV) to run a Motorola UHF Amp (pair 8560's).

My old microwave oven croaked so I salvaged the power transformer. It
looks OK, but I wonder if anyone has used one in a supply. I plan to float
the XFMR on a plexi plate and use a FWB Rectifier.

Any thoughts on this ??
