Bert,
I am very grateful for your advice. The cap value was a typo in my
mail. It is actually 0.01uF. I am also switching to a 6kv 15ma transformer
and a 0.005uF cap some time soon. Also please remember that frequency was in
KILOHETRTZ not MEGAHERTZ and is therefore a VERY long way from being a
microwave.
What are multiple spark gaps? are they in series, parrallel, how do you
calculate the gap etc.
