Re: Tesla Coil Q Factors




  Bert Pool -

  Thank you again for the valuable info you and the your friends sent me
several years ago. Your data like the data from DR RESONANCE and Bert
Hickman was very complete compared to most of the data I was receiving.  It
was Bill Emery's coil data that appeared not to work well on the JHCTES
program. I finally realized the program was telling me that Bill's coil was
not a quarter wave coil but it was still in tune and that was why it was
working so well.

  I agree that coilers could use a good maggie program. This would take a
lot more empirical data than we have now.
