Care to go into more detail as to why a toroid that isn't perfectly
smooth can create a vertical streamer that appears to have originated
directly in the air? That is unless you were just talking about how the
right breakout area would normally create longer streamers. I was hoping
to get some more information than just, "your topload is dented, so
maybe..", but thanks for the reply nevertheless.

Well your topload seems like it has a lot of big dents in it, so I bet
that

has something to do with it.
