Stanley Harle, All,

Last night I pushed the twin apart to a measured distance of 144 
inches between terminals.  At this distance I require foil points on 
the toroids to direct the streamers towards each other as the floor 
and ceiling become more attractive.  I do get connecting streamers 
between terminals but the show is not nearly as good as it was at 11
feet.

Just for the record, I turned off my rorary motor and set the rotor by
hand so
that two gaps about 3/8th's inch were formed and let 'er rip for a short
run 
at 8 kVA.  I also got connecting 144 inch streamers and this time 
noticed 3 firings per 60 Hz half cycle with the o-scope monitoring 
the show.

Still hanging out in coiling heaven,
rwstephens
