I wonder if 833A's can be run horizontally? I have to ask, because 833 sockets
are a little rougher to come by then the actual tube itself:^) Hum? Oh yeah, I
am almost ready to fire up my tube coil, however instead of using a piece of 6"
OD for the primary form I used the only thing that I had laying around which
was a piece of 4." 
I wonder if I will get a flashover. Also, I already have one 833A and am
wanting to see how it will run all by itself before I get the other 833s. (The
truth is, I WANT TO SEE SOME PULSED DC NOW!) Wonder if it is good on the tube.
That is, using one tube instead of two. Yes, yes, I know it is probably a
foolish question, but this is my first tube coil, so I should be allowed at
least a few of them for this project. Thanks list>
