I would like to point out that Geiger counters count particles from decaying Uranium atoms. X-rays are not measured by Geiger counters. I was a bit tired and it was a bit late when I used the gamma rays words in my comment. That was a mistake. Please allow me to correct and restate my original comments a bit more correctly.
Still incorrect...
CORRECTED below.
A Geiger counter measures particles released from decaying Uranium atoms and has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with the energy released from a Tesla coil. Any x-ray or other emissions from a Tesla coil are not measurable by a Geiger counter.
The preceding statement is incorrect.
Geiger counter measurements are of ABSOLUTELY no value to a coiler, unless you live next to a Uranium mine.
Happy coiling. Skip
