I am pretty new to all these precautionary measures people indicate as being
necessary for rf kickback ect. My first question is doesnt the total 6,000
ohms of resistance in the primary circuit limit your possible performance?
Doesnt the 5.5 mH RF choke contribute a significant portion of the total
inductance in the primary circuit, thus changing the main needed tank C
value?. Hasnt RF chokes fallen out of favor and is this a reason why? Also
the 2 500 pf caps grounded from the center, are these exclusively a safety
precaution and/or could they be in the range of value to function as what
was termed resonant mains or resonant recharging where a small value of
capacity is used that is resonant to the NST open secondary inductance -at- 60
hz? Lastly the power factor capacitor, is this now commonly employed by
coilers? Thanks for any answers. HDN
