 Hi,
  I picked up a pair of 3k ohm 250 watt resistors last night in hopes that I
 could use them for kickback protection for my NST powered coil. I think
 maybe the resistance is too high. What value of caps should I use? I'm
 currently running a 12/30 NST with no protection at all. I got them cheap,
 so no big deal if they can't be used.
 
 Thanks,
 Jon

Jon,

3,000 ohm series resistors are what I use on my 3.0" coil running at 12 kv 60 
ma.  One on each H.V. feed line (they are 25 watt resistors).
