You would also need a "bombarder" transformer to put 200-300 mA at 18-26 kV 
across the tube to blast any residual molecules off the walls of the glass 
tubes.

I wonder if it is possible to "make" a neon tube out of that meltible glass
you get with chemistry stuff.  I would think so, you would just need to melt
one end with a wire in it, suck the air out of it, backfill it with gas, and
melt the other end.  Those glass tubes cost a few bucks a piece, and air
conditioning compressor will serve adequately as a pump and can be obtained
for free, snips of wire, and a tank of argon costs about $80 (unless you
borrow one from a friend who gets free refills).  I'll have to try it, and
if it works, what you could probably do for your research project, is set up
several "receivers" for your transmitter, and see how distance effects them.
  If I were a judge, I would be very impressed!  then what one might do, is
try to hook up the output of your receivers to power bigger stuff (even if
it does not work at all, you will have "learned something", sometimes judges
like failures almost as much as successes in the scientific world).  Good
luck.
