Re: spark gap construction



Original poster: "resonance" <resonance@xxxxxxxxxxxx>



Why go thru all this work when it's simply not necessary?

I've been building coils for 50 years and have never had to use magnetic fields to acheive the proper quench factor.

This is Matthew again.
what about using two, maybe even four solinoids perpindicular to the gap? Magnets, I agree would heat up and weaken, but I don't think solinoids would. The only problem that I see though is possibly the heat melting the solinoids or the spark gap arcing to the solinoids.
