RE: Coil sensitive to primary tapping

Sounds like you may need more turns. Have you tried putting the parameters
into JAVATC and running "AUTO TUNE" to find the optimum tap point?

Guys,

My coil is extemely sensitive to the primary tap. It refuses to make any
sparks if you move it off the last coil or so. It works best on the very
end
of the last one.

Currently it is a 9kV/60Ma, 15 turns, 30X6.5"secondary, 7x24" dryer duct
toroid, 0.025uf/12kV capacitance

Any ideas?

Aaron
