    Annoying that with higher frequencies, there's no insulators, 
just better or worse capacitors.
    You just need to find a really good insulator with a unity 
dielectric constant  - sub-unity would be nice :). A dissipation 
factor of zero would be convenient, also.
    Doesn't Dr. Resonance advocate an auto-transformer configuration 
for magnifier primary/secondary? Pardon me if I'm misquoting... And 
to make the tuning tap points off the outside/bottom of the primary, 
furthest from the top of the secondary?
