I think that works for input transformers, not output transformers

Well, follow it with a floating-supply amp, just like the input case.
This has 16 floating output channels, each with its own dc/dc
converter. I figure that there are about 86 different supply rails
on this board. http://www.highlandtechnology.com/DSS/V470DS.html
We're using ISDN data transformers as the dc/dc things, about
$1.10 each.

Hmm, +/-15 and +5, etc., for each of the 16 channels, that's 48
supply rails, plus some on the VME side, how do you get 86 rails?
