Sooo...  I suppose we are stuck with our SRSG woes until we can easily
afford a laser powered pulsed preionizer or the semiconductor companies
come up with a solid state device that can withstand up to 100KV hold off
potentials which can operate at 5000 KHz.

 >>>>>>>>>> This has already been done and used frequently.  I recently
worked on a
cathode modulator for a TWT which was purely a solid state device.  Was
capable of switching
150kV, 2A RMS current, and PRF's of up to 6-7 kHz.



there has got to be an affordable answer somewhere........

 >>>>>>>>>>>>>There is.  Just use a simple SRSG spark gap.  A high-power SRSG
can be made for
under $500.00 to accomodate very large systems (>25kW)
