RE: [TCML] Re: multi-section primary gap effects, was: TC Newbie



< But yes, there are different 
voltage drops between each gap. There is of course a rate at which 
points of the air will reach conductivity sooner or later than other 
points.> . (When all the points have reached a conductivity level needed to 
arc the gap, that's when we switch current.) The current increases from 
the source at some rate up to it's peak, and the voltage drops are based 
on the resistance of each gap.      .
<This might be a good cause for my gaps to maybe load streamers better.>"Delayed voltage"                                  (Now I understand instant current in a gap,The Bang!).                                                              Thanks again for your input. Bart I would never find info like this on the web!(Hope the above of my writing is correct)                   Gareth
