I have setup my coil PSU using 2 of the ignition coils
setup like the Triggered sprark gap in parallel, and can
acheive some streamers about .75" to 1" without a top
load but have a few questions....I know I am not in tune
yet i get streamers....is this due to the transformer action of
the coil? Second question, has anyone modeled the triggered
spark gap circut in PSpice? As I fear that even at full power I
am not getting a full sine wave out of it and wonder if it is just
part of the wave if I will ever be able to tune it.

Just a few spec's on the coil itself:
Secondary 2" diameter 5" tall
resonant freq 1233Khz
Primary cap: .9nF
Primary coil: many diffrent ones none work as of yet.....

Anyone have any input to how I can improve this (cheaply) or
if I will ever be able to do anything with this power supply?

Thanks
