Several decades ago while investigating mutual inductance, I built a 
great many coils using various coil geometries.  In your case, when 
estimating the coupling between the primary and secondary, be aware that 
most of the trumpet coil inductance will exist in the first several 
turns of the coil, since inductance depends on the coil radius squared.  
That should be kept in mind when determining the primary coil 
placement.  The mutual inductance between the primary and secondary will 
strongly depend on the proximity of the primary with the first several 
turns of the trumpet coil, where most of inductance resides.
