Hi Matt,
Actually if your coil's SG is adjusted correctly, your main gap should really be the only one firing (pretty much constantly) and your terry filter safety gap should only fire VERY sporatically, as in maybe only a couple of times a minute. The safety gap is only there as an over voltage surge protector for your transformer and caps.
