I have the Ford book but it is dated 1985 and doesn't have the table you
mention. You probably know by now that you can find an almost infinite
number of Tesla coils at 400 Khz resonant frequency with the JHCTES program.
You can juggle the 4 necessary secondary parameters for many combinations
that will give you 400 Khz.

Hello.
Me again. (jeeze)

Any rate.
Checked out the only book our library has on tesla coils. Its written by a
guy named RA Ford, who uses some tables from the CRC Handbook of Chemistry
and Physics.  the quote is : " Using the tables for inductance/capacitance
values, conveniently found in the CRC Handbook of chemistry and Physics,
34th edition on page 2***(dont remember), 400kilocycles will have
*******."(dont remember this either..)

Anyway. I would love to get my hands on that table, to see if that works.
He's calculating a coil to run on a specific frequency in that chapter.

If anyone has that book or that table, could I get a scan. copy. email
whatever of it??

The book that the quote is from is Tesla Coil Secrets, construction notes
and novel uses.  It deals mostly with Tesla-Oudin coils and the like.

The book he's referring to is
CRC handbook of chemistry and physics, 34th edition.  It was published
sometime around 1930-1945, I believe.

Many thanks

S
