Hi Scott,

This has, in fact, been done. Back in 2000, coiler Duane Bylund made a 
three phase solid state system that was able to drive three resonators 
(wound on 5 gallon buckets) with a phase shift of 120 degrees at 82 kHz. 
This was one of the early solid state coils, and it base-excited each 
resonator from a square wave RF source instead of using a separate 
primary winding. Here's are some picture some of the system and a couple 
of three phase discharges:
