Re: carbon gaps
Chip:
Not at the power levels I have run. "[ At the lower frequencies, could this be used to drive a coil? -- Chip]" Some of the bigger old arcs
run as much as 500 kw at up to 100 kHz, at efficiences as high as 30%,
so would imagine they would do very well at running CW coils. Of course,
the spark transmitters of the same day ran similar AVERAGE powers, with
peak powers in the 10's of megawatts plus, so imagine what they would
do with the proper coil!
