Re: [TCML] 1st Run



I'd say something was wrong for sure.... Yes, .06uF primary capacitor.  JavaTC 
specs are here -> http://www.cmnow.com/TeslaMan/Miles%20Specs.txt


I think a big part of the problem was to secure the secondary with a carrage 
bolt and using it for the RF ground connection and having the HV side of the 
secondary inside the tube too.  These two connections were onlyy 20" apart, an 
easy jump for 1.4kVA input power.

Hi miles,  something must be terribly wrong here.  It looks like you have .06 uf 
in your primary capacitor.  From the picture it doesn't' look like your 
secondary would be in tune with your primary circuit.  can you give us the specs 
on your secondary coil?
