Hi David

You can find a good deal on caps at
http://www.teslasystems-dot-com/indexMain.html . Go to products and scroll to
the end. These are used Maxwell caps in good condition. Prices are much
better than the final prices for Maxwell caps on ebay. When I was a kid, I
tried using transmission line caps in a tank circuit. I got a good discharge
at the spark gap, but nothing from the top of my tesla coil. My knowledge of
cap sizing in those days amounted to nothing---it was all trail and error.
