[TCML] increasing spark length help

[James Hutton <b-u-r-t-o-n-boy@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

hello.I am a 17 year old, and I have just successful run my first ever tesla coil! :)I was just wondering, does anyone know of a good troubleshooting/ tuning instruction guide?im using a 15/60 nst so im expecting about 4ft streamers (atleast thats what all the programs and formulas said i should get (52inches))but im only getting about 2.5 feet.Im very pleased with the results, but it would be nice for even better.any suggestions?all the trouble shooting sites ive seen just talk about what to do if the coil doesnt work at all, not how to improve it.Also, i dont have an oscilloscope, or intend to buy one, so thats not an option.thanks! :) 		 	   		  _______________________________________________
