Malcolm,

The scope outs for the H2 Thyratron with the maggey are perfect decremented
waves!  I have four personally owned, brand new Tektronics real time digital
storage scopes.  No Beating and no Cohere time was noted either in the
primary current (Pearson wideband CT) or the voltage received on the antenna
systems.  They (the H2 thyratrons) work great at .6 coupling.  However, I
would like to see a like switch stay on a bit longer to check performance.
Back to back with fancy triggering might do it.

I am so wrapped up in my Fusor project just now that I haven't advanced on
this goal.
