Re: [TCML] tuning a tesla coil for broadcast?





For broadcasting a signal you want a very low SWR (standing wave ratio). For producing large sparks you want a very high SWR which does not broadcast very well --- something we try to avoid.

For more details on SWR just drop into your local library and grab a copy of "The Radio Amateur's Handbook", especially the older issues which explain these concepts in detail.

I don't want to broadcast - however - I think that earlier people were
discussing the original idea of power broadcasting, the sparks we all crave were a nuisance. How were coils tuned for transmitting - or for lighting up
fluoresent tubes?
