First the general question, Does every arc "Beat"?

I've got a 15/60 NST and an .0094uf MMC. I know it's not LTR, thatsmy problem. It's possible to adjust my SG so that the voltage issafe for the NST (at cost of spark length). But I'm sure how I'd goabout doing this. Should I hook up the NST to the SG by itself (NoMMC) and adjust until I get a nice consistant spark? and if I do itthis way how would the MMC build up a charge if the Gap fires at thevoltage comfortable for the NST? Which lead to my initial question,How can I tell if the arc is "beating" or just arcing?. How will Iknow if I'm charging and discharging my caps?
