<< Hi all
Today I got first light from my new secondary coil.
The salt water caps work fine with 4 obits in paralell,am getting 27"
sparks to a grounded point from the toroid(20 3/4" * 4 1/4" at 22.3pF).
The coil spec is as follows-
pipe OD 4.3"
wind lenght 22"
AWG 22
No turns 834
H/D ratio 5.1:1
frequency 456khz unloaded
245khz loaded
Can`t wait until Brian builds the new poly and foil cap.
Cheers Mike Tucknott (Sparks in the UK)

Mike,
Congratulations. Sounds like a good project. You will definitely see an
improvement with a poly cap over the salt water caps.
