Hello,
        I recently changed my primary coil to allow me to tune to a larger
toroid. Before this I was not having any trouble with my system. As soon as
I added another turn of primary I have had sparks on the secondary coil,
jumping from one wire up say 5-6 inches. I think that the insulation is not
strong enough on the primary coil, because my secondary is fairly new and I
have never had any trouble with it before this. Should I just try to
insulate the primary more heavily??
			Thank You 
                         Andrew Meyer
