Hi Terry,
You may be right about the ball height. Lowering would likely help.
Hey, regarding the SISG driver boards, I remember you picked these
up from someone on the list, but I don't remember if they are still
available. I could make up a new driver board but why reinvent the
wheel. Are those boards still around somewhere?
Take care,
Bart

Hi Terry,
It's looking good! Tonight on the way back from dinner, I drove by
a house that had ball lights on a pillar in their yard. It
reminded me of your topload stack. There were 4 ball lights
configured as your topload and about the same size. What was
different is that there was a ball in the center of the 4 outer balls.
Looking at the picture you showed where the corona is streaming
off the secondary is probably a good indication that a center disc
laid on top of the rods and about the inner diameter of the balls
would help eliminate that corona.
"Looking at it", the balls are probably too high. I will cut the
center rod down about 2 inches. That should fix it.
