Konrad,
There are actually a couple of issues with coils and sokme of the more
famous coilers, many of whom are very active on this list. Issues
include:
National Geographic, July, 1993, "Lightning" - Both Bill Wysock and
Richard Hull are both featured. Great issue!
National Geographic, July, 1997, p. 94 - Greg Leyh's Coil is featured,
but unfortunately he's not given any credit in the article
You may also want to check out:
Scientific American, August 1993: - Triggered Lightning, Richard Hull,
and Bill Wysock and their Tesla Coils
Happy hunting!
