Re: WIRE CHART




Robert, Brad and any concerned parties,

This form of "basket weave" winding is ancient and works great in radios 
where microhenries are needed, but the inductance per unit turn drops way 
down, too.  In the common class of amateur coils, 20" diameter and smaller, 
the interturn capacitance is a virtual non-issue.  High inductance is of 
prime importance as the output is a function of current delivery rate and 
coil inductance.  Tesla only fiddled with the problem of internal 
capacitance in Colorado due to the tremendous diameter of his coils where 
just one turn added a significant capacitance to the coil.
