No I was not using a break out, I just attached my secondary magnet wire to 
the bottom of the sphere using aluminum tape.  Should I change 
something?  I cannot change the height of my primary or secondary without 
massive reconstruction.  It would take hours and hours to change now.  I 
was told that the bottom of the secondary and primary should be on the same 
plane so that is what I did.  Thanks
