[IRCA] resistance across matching transformer

["Bill Harms" <wharms@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The past couple of days, I noticed that signals on my BUG have 
dropped strength.  In the process of diagnosing the problem, I 
noticed that there is about 12 Kohm resistance across the 
transformer.  The windings on the antenna side and the lead-in are 
supposed to be isolated.  Is this normal?  I am guessing that perhaps 
there is a short somewhere and that I need to re-wind/replace the 
transformer I wound.  Any ideas anyone? I would like get others' 
opinions before I do surgery on the transformer.
