I don't want this to sound like a mutual admiration society. However, if it
weren't for your Java script calculator, I wouldn't have a coil at all!!
That is why I continually suggest to newbies who want to start winding that
secondary, to do the math first and to help, use your website calculators.

So, best of luck with your t-gap. And if I can contribute any suggestions
along the way, just drop me a note.

Regards

Ted

Hi Ted,

Thanks for the write up! I've been quietly itching to start gathering parts
and build a tgap. You put a lot of
detail into your paper and it's appreciated. I like your choice of a
mechanical connection and method used for
the hei. My situation will have a few required modifications for power
handling and slighltly different
approach to the gap. I won't run LTR (pig). I've been waiting for your
paper and wanted to thank you
publically for your hardwork and to Marc for pioneering the tgap! This
should be a lot fun!

Take care,
Bart
