WOW! Neat!  Be sure to get every detail they find.  This is one test we can
only dream of getting.  The information this person can get is very
valuable to us!  Be sure to get a copy of everything you can from them.
The suggestions they give are very valuable to all of us...

Be sure everything is well grounded and all that.  Your coil should be just
great for this test the way it is.  I do know of a few EMI tricks like line
filters and ferrites on the primary wiring, but best to wait to see what
they find and suggest.

Be sure to show it to them operating first so they know what they are
dealling with.  Hopefully, it won't scare them away ;-))
