RE: [TCML] Sphere Topload Coil

Wrong.

Gary Weazel (or Weazle) does exist but his real name is John.  He is in
Canada and a ham radio operator.  He talked to me on the tel approx 6
weeks ago.  He made the original hyperbaric spark gap.  At one time it was
posted in the archives.  He does have a website but you have toemail him
to get photos of the sparkgap --- it is not posted on the site.
