Re: Basic question regarding twin systems

Jon,

Having similar indoor space restrictions, I built a twin system also.  It is
a pair of 4 x 23 inch secondaries with rather large toroids.  I have been
able to generate 88 inch streamers between the toroids, using breakout
points.  As a bonus, two coils is more efficient by a factor of about 1.4 as
far as input power vs streamer length.  So, go for it!
