Greg,
    I have a copy of the frequency allocation chart put out by the FCC.  It
shows several ranges of frequencies that are used by amature radio buffs that
are probably ok to run a TC at.  There are also several Maritime frequencies
that might be ok if you are nowhere near the ocean(don't know for sure
though).  I have this chart at work so I cannot give you specifics on this,
but could send you a copy if you wish.  
    The only "for sure" frequencies that you would not have a problem with is
from 0 to 10kHz.  For some reason this is no man's land and the FCC would not
bother you if your coil ran in this region.  That, of course, would mean
making an incredibly large secondary, but who knows? it might make for one
killer coil.
Don't know if this helps, but I hope it does.
