Hey, Thanks for the reply !
Last night, I got my hands on a Power Transformer from a Healthkit Mono tube amp and proved what you're saying is correct.
The primary winding read 3.2 Ohms and I know it is a perfectly good PT.
I based my original readings comparing to a Hammond transformer which I think read in the 20 Ohm range.
I've attached a pic of the amplifier for context. I also should have mentioned that when powering up the amplifier initially raw, with no tubes in the sockets the 3A primary fuse shredded instantly. Hence raising questions about a shorted PT.
Thanks again, and this shows that it's always good to get advice and do further research when possible.
The quest continues
