With NST's never exceed 240 mils (0.240) max.  Use 120-130 mils max for
initial tuning.

Be sure to use a "Terry filter" between your spark gap and the NST.  Never
run the cap in parallel with the input.  Always run the spark gap in
parallel with the input and the cap in series with the primary adjustable
tap.
