I have often been struck by the theoretical implications of negative
resistance in regenerative antennae and have wondered about their
application to TCs. It would be attractive to design a TC coil where DC
resistance is eliminated and 100% of input power is devoted to output
reactive power only. Apparently this concept was not lost on Tesla as he
wrote about it over a year ahead of Armstring and his early regenerative
oscillators. Further thought suggests easy application to CW tube TCs and
even solid state TCs which have caught our fancy and seem to be the rage of
Tesla coiling currently. And, rightly so.
