Effect of UV on topload



Original poster: "Paul Nicholson by way of Terry Fritz <twftesla-at-qwest-dot-net>" <paul-at-abelian.demon.co.uk>

Some questions on the effect that hard UV has on electroscopes,
toploads and secondary coils:

a) Is the UV in sunlight hard enough to discharge an electroscope?

if so,

b) Does shining hard UV onto a TC topload or secondary coil make a
measureable difference to Q factor?

if so,

c) Can direct sunlight impinging on a coil set up outdoors have an
impact on the Q factor?

and, er, 

d) Does Terry by any chance have a hard UV lamp?  Eprom eraser, etc?

Cheers,
