There's 4, 8 and 16 right there.

4 ohms go between screws "3-4" (which mean 3-4 ohms)
8 ohms go between screws "6-8" (which means 6-8 ohms)
16 ohms go between screws "16-18" (which means 16-18 ohms)

Cheers!

It's certainly rare, but I've wound OPT and brought the individual secondary leads out like that before.

If you get it, tell us if it's a european something-or-other OPT.

Cheers!
