RE: Magnifier Coils

The Wardencliffe project used flat spiral coils and it used several of them.
This would indicate that Tesla likely used a flat spiral as a third coil.

I have used a flat spiral coil as a third coil (the secondary was also a
flat spiral.)  The sparks from the third coil were the same length as the
sparks from the secondary coil so I assume the third coil increased the
longitudinal component of the wave and not the transverse component.  Had
the transverse component increased, the sparks would have been longer.  I
have not measured this to verify it, but I'm working on it.

Hi list,

Does anyone know  if  Tesla ever used a flat spiral coil for
the third coil in a magnifier tesla coil system?
