Hey-Hey!!!,
There is one benefit I can see with this set up. I think that the PIV ratings for the diodes will be very low. I'll walk through a cycle, with Bas' schematic. As the top of the secondary goes high it will begin conducting current, this current will drive the lower half of the choke lower than B+, as the lower secondary is going negative wrt the top one. HTis is the primary reason for this in my book, I think that best use of the 600 PIV schottky diodes can be obtained in this sort of circuit. fewest diodes( two ) and ability to use a standard CT secondary of more than 200 V per side.
good listening,
Douglas
