RE: primary rewind?



Hello..

Well...I have recently decided to rewind my secondary, from 8.5" OD and 876
turns, down to 6.0" OD with about 520 or so turns...I realized my previous
secondary was way to low (Freq.) for my power suppply/caps...I went from
about 120khz to 280khz...
My original primary is...12 turns of 3/8" copper tuing spaced at 3/4" (to
center) with an inside radius of 12"... this leaves a big distance between
the primary and secondary... (3.0" all around)...is there going to be any
coupling at this distance..or should I not even test it and rewind a new
primary closer in?

The rest of my specs are as follows:
15kv , 120mah neon
.03 uf primary cap
four tungsten series air blast gaps..
currenty building chokes.


Thanks!
