EWWWWWWW   ouch ...

did i read that right ?   you have made a strike ring a complete circle
???

make the strike ring into a "C" shape  not an "O" shape    the O shape
is a bad thing not good  baaaaaadd    it becomes another circuit it suck
the life out of the EMF   ;)   leave about a 2 - 3 inch gap between
ends  use your RF ground wire to ground the ring and the base of the
secondary 

make the supports for the strike ring out of non conductive material 

ewwwwwwwwwww  Pine wood  nasty  baaad  pine wood has LOTS of sap in it
VERY conductive try  UHMW PE  or even PVC 

double gap sets?  try either the sync gap  OR the static gap (( not both
))

separate the extention cords    it looks as if you are getting feedback
from the NST which is inducing hi V into the other cord      are you
using a filter on the NST feeder line ???

KEEP  trying  Nathan   it took me a couple of months to get his right
