tuning a coil with a freq gen and a scope
Original poster: "Mr Gregory Peters by way of Terry Fritz <twftesla-at-qwest-dot-net>" <s371034-at-student.uq.edu.au>
Hello all,
I'm wondering what the best procedure for tuning a coil with a scope
is. Should you grid dip the seondary when it is installed within the
primary or when it is free standing? Should you grid dip the primary
with the secondary installed, or without? I have previously grid dipped
them separately, and then added an extra turn in the primary to
compensate for corona loading. I normally base feed the coils through a
1k resistor. Is this method reliable?
