Capacitor bank plate eddy currents

Hi All,

I just realized that the aluminum plates that I use to
hold my bank of doorknob capacitors together is
sitting right under my TC primary. I am wondering if
this could be leeching power from the tank circuit?

After a 30 second run the plates don't seem to get
warm at all, so I'm not unduly concerned.
