Re: Tesla Coil RF Transmitter (long)

". There is even a 136kHz ham
band now, so you can legally transmit on the same
kinds of frequencies as Tesla did using the same kinds
of antennas, and then try higher frequencies with
modern antennas and see how much better they work. ;)"

	That isn't a ham band and requires a special license application.  Look
for "Part 5" under FCC rules and regulations.  You don't need a license
to operate between 160 and 190 kHz if you keep your transmitter power to
1 watt maximum.  Not too much you can do with it, but guys are getting
signals across a couple of thousand miles with that power.  Very slow
speed keying.
