All,
     I just bought an oscilloscope and I was wondering how I could measure my
primary voltage with it, use lots of resistance?  Any good ideas I could use
it for, as in for my tesla coil?  I found out that my secondary resonates at
220 kHz, not the 660 kHz that I had though, so I guess it was at the third
harmonic.  I was getting 18" sparks at 660khz using 900 VA, tomorrow I will
see what happens when I lower the frequency to 220khz by using my new large
primary.

Thanks,

Erik
