Hi All

This is a further update to my post of yesterday on the subject.I have
made some additional measurements which provide the following:

Freson=133khz
Input current to transformer is about 12A
Quenching is almost all at the first notch.

Set coupling with secondary 3.25" above top of last active primary turn
Added about .009uf to primary cap making a total of .089uf
Adjusted phasing of break which increased transformer output voltage to
a little over 8kv.
Discharge length with this setup is 60"

I plan to add more capacitance to the primary cap, play with the phasing
of the rotary and continue to adjust the K which I will measure at my
next session.
