Re:
"Velocity of a wave travelling down a transmission line is:

v = l/sqrt(LC)         l = length of transmission line
                       C = capacitance of the length "l" transmission line
                       L = inductance "
        That should read L and C are per unit length of the transmission
line.  That is not the same as the total inductance of the secondary
and the apparent distributed capacitance.  Look up formulas for helical
antennas (low frequency type) which have been given here in order to
get a better idea of what is really going on.
