Has anyone every heard of an arc transmitter?  An artical says, 
in the early days of radio they used high voltage arc transmitters. 
An arc transmitter transmits on a very wide band of frequencies.  
What is an arc transmitter? Could it be something like a modulated 
Tesla Coil?  Or is it CW only?  This makes me wonder if a Tesla 
Coil can be modulated?  What if you modulate the 120 VAC line into
the neon transformer?  What if you modulate a 3rd coil on the 
ground end of the secondary coil?  What if you modulate a TC with 
a carrier frequency and voice?  Has anyone ever tried to use a 
Tesla Coil as a transmitter?
