[TCML] Tuning Question



Hi Members,
I did have a good run earlier this week and have some questions regarding my 
results.  I added 30mA to the primary for a total of 120mA now.  I noticed while 
tuning between a half and a quarter turn inside of the sweet spot I would get 
additional streamers.  With this setting even with a breakout point I would 
still get multiple streamers.  However, when tuning closer to the sweet spot I 
would get single streamers from a breakout point (longer) and fewer streamers 
without the breakout, though there were still multiples.
I measure the longest arc to ground at 40”, so is all this expected 
performance.  Or have I got something wrong?
12000/120mA
6-7 turn ¼” primary
Sucker gar @ .2”
40nF cap
4.125”x28” secondary of 980 turns
Double 4”x24” and 3”x18” Torroid
Thanks!
Miles
