John please explain how you add turns to the top of a secondary 
without inviting coronal breakout! I'm damn good at soldering and
I have no problem soldering even #36 awg without bumps but I've never 
been able to insulate the solder joint sufficently to prevent coronal 
break out. Please share the secret with us all.
