What ratio did you use on your 10.5 and 15.5 secondary coils and what
wire
size did you wind them both with?  I am building a larger TC for my 16K
transformer and am gathering information.  What mfd value are you using?
What is your toroid and size? What did you use as a spark gap?  Is your
primary flat? Whow much power are you running on these coils?  What is
the
output length maximum?
Do you have any suggestions for improvements?
