Robert,
I have about a years experience with TCs and i have heard much on the 
transmitting recieving bit. All i have heard is that you can do something 
with an old satalite dish or a cooking wok to "focus the energy. I have 
never tried this but in theory it should work. I have also heard that 
vacuume tube tesla coils are excelent transmitters as small ones can light 
up a luminous tube at greater distances than most medium sized TCs. They are 
supposed to produce a lot of RF. Something was mentioned about not touching 
metal objects while the VTTC is operating as they may give you a shock or rf 
burns. this also supports the VTTC is a better transmitter theory. I assume 
that you know about big toploads to transmit, right?
Anyway, i wish you luck and let me know about your progression on this 
project.
                                                          Ciya,
                                                     Drew Murray
