Hi 
yet another variation of spark gap.  Get 4 brass hose barb-1/2npt adapters from
home depot and screw 2 each into 2 bronze "T"s.  Join these horizontally
oriented T's with a vertically oriented plastic T.  Attach a blower (using a
hose barb) to the plastic T. (air compressor, HVLP blower)  The Brass hose
barbs can be screwed in or out to adjust the gap.  Two of the barbs spark  to
brass bars of the tank circuit.  The other two barbs spark to a single brass
bar.  From above it all looks like an underlined "H," with the top of the H
gapping to the Tank circuit.  See attached photo.  Also visible in the photo is
the safety gap and the parallel resistors for the NST protection.
