Equipment: my factory-built "reliable" AADE L/C Meter IIB. Readings done as a set: xfmr T1, then xfmr T2; wait 1-4 hrs and repeat.

Notes: T1,T2 wound on same type cores; it is believed that the same number of turns were used on each winding.
Now, a few questions:
1) K>>1?? 2) How high can K go? Given the form factor used is the same for T1 and T2, and the cores are all same shape and material, the student should be able to tell us (the peanut gallery) exactly what T1 is, and derive description of T2.
