<< Hi Ed:
 
 Does the 25 W  3 K resistor seem to heat up very much during operation? 
 Enough to pose any fire hazard?
 
 I've used some 100 W. 500 Ohm resistors also wound like a parasitic
 choke
 with about 40 turns of #16 AWG.

DR,

Using only one 12 kv 30 ma transformer, the resistors just get warm.
