which produces unregulated AC heater current and 170 Vrms for the second part of the power supply.   
The second part is a regulated power oscillator operating at 25 kHz, using transformer T620.   
The second part is a regulated Armstrong power oscillator operating at 25 kHz, using transformer T620.   
The secondary outputs of T620 are simply rectified and filtered, producing -12 VDC, +125 VDC, -100 VDC,
