[TCML] DRSSTC weird waveform behavior



Hello, Recently been working on my DRSSTC seeing what my ZCS is.  Came to find I have large voltage spikes, and my switching is late.

After getting tips and suggestions from Kizmo, I have moved the gate resistor from 5ohms to 10ohms, which killed my spike down a little.  Then also he told me Steve had a similar issue, and fixed it with a 20 ohm resistor. seen here (http://www.stevehv.4hv.org/DRSSTC2/waveforms/badoutput.JPG)  So im sure the simple fix to my overshoot is to do the same. Add resistors.  But what I want to know, What the heck is the deal with the high squiggles on the Output voltage? If i adjust the duty cycle to ONE more cycle, it mirrors over the horizontal.  1 more cycle, mirrors again.

So, Here are my waveforms.

with 10ohm resistor on the gates

But what the heck is this??

Any help is wonderful, Thanks =)
