Richard, Dave, all,
These were free air sparks.
BTW, I tried Dave Sharpe's level shifting method last night -- quick
lash-up. Sparks were brighter, longer, fatter, fuzzier, and made a
strange "crispy" sound. More bizarreness! But this appearance
does support my suggestion that any kind of sudden voltage
application to the oscillator, eliminates the smooth straight sparks.
