John,

Wow!  I didn't know that.  I only tried to use a large toroid on my tube TC
one time and it was a real bust (limited tune range).  I suspect it is
induction type heating due to the more CW nature of the systems output.
Where the energy is delivered in a more steady fashion with longer energy
trains.  You have any ideas on why?
