Oddly enough it IS inside the coil form. A few inches on either end
anyway. I wonder if a vent of some sort would help this(if it is indeed
my issue).

    Pardon if this has been mentioned, puter problems this end:
     How is the topload (if any) wired to the top of the secondary?

    Specifically, it is widely reported that if the wire runs inside the

coiled form,
    an accumulation of weakly ionized gas inside can lead to high 
'corona (like?)'
    losses.
 
    I have seen this exact effect: as the ionized gas builds up, leakage

goes
    down the core, either as discharges/sparks or as ongoing leakage....

    best
