Re: [TCML] Which way is better?

Hi Gareth,

Putting the gap across the transformer results in less srtress on the 
transformer and less
RF "hash" back into your power supply. This results in longer 
transformer life expectancy,
especially with NSTs. Check the list archives for much detail on 
reasons why.
Either way will work while the transformer lasts.

I see on they internet some people put the tank cap in parallel and the 
spark
gap in series instead of the tank cap in series and spark gap in 
parallel.Whats
the differince?Is there any major advantage to using a tank cap in 
parallel?I
would like to have another go.Two of my MOTs dont work so I scrapped 
that for
now and trying to organise another 12000v Nst for 400 bucks.IS There 
any reason
for tank cap in parallel? Thanks Gareth
