Re: [TCML] RFI EMI Filter question

You can filter the power line all you want. It will not likely change
anything. Think about it. A Tesla coil is a powerful RF transmitter and
antenna combination with a peak output of multiple KiloWatts. Any piece
of wire connected to your computer is acting as a receiving antenna and
the computer is the receiver getting the induced currents in these wires.
It is not just the power wires, but the mouse, keyboard, monitor and
printer and other device wires "receiving" the signals from your Tesla
transmitter.
Funny you should mention that, my current keyboard goes on the blink
whenever I run my coil. Previos keyboards never had that problem, but this
one does.
Fortunately all it requires is a reboot to get it back working, but it's
still a bit of a head scratcher.
