Original poster: "Gerry Reynolds" <gerryreynolds@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Hi Todd,If you want a quiet spark gap, you may want to consider building a SISG. This is a silicon based spark gap that Terry invented. It is completely silent and almost no losses (low R when on). Check the archieves for details.

Original poster: "Todd Reeve" <todd.reeve@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Has anyone ever tried to make things a little quieter when running your coil?I was looking at the muffler on my central vacuum unit and it has a muffler that quiets the unit by about 50%. Borrowing from that idea, I was thinking about building a box lined with some type of foam with openings on each end. Any thoughts?
