Jim,
Actually the Multivibrator can be used as a sort of spark gap only when
discharging low current capacitors. Otherwise they are just a means by which to
trigger the other switching elements. Especially for thyratrons and trigatrons,
but not soley. Well atleast that is what Frungel says in Volume 1, I don't
really know for sure, not my specialty, so to speak.
