Re: [TCML] RE: FAQ - Phasing

["DC Cox" <resonance@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

If anyone on list is running NSTs and wants improved performance, contact me
off-list and I will email you my drawing of Gary Weazle's hyperbaric spark
gap.  It works great.

Most local vac cleaner shops will donate a free motor/blower if you ask them
and give them 3-4 weeks to get one in.  The T and brass pipe fittings cost a
total of $15.  Excellent quenching is the secret!
