Hi Guys
Another question...
I have the LOPT here now, and with a single 12V SLA I can get just shy of a 10cm continuous arc between it’s
anode and “screen” wire. Much lesser an arc from it’s “focus” wire which is actually the stronger HT cable.
When using the “screen” wire a couple of pins under the LOPT were also arcing, so I bridged them for a better
result straight from the wire. Is this the best place to use on the other side of the HT anode?
Also, are the “screen” and “focus” adjustment screws some sort of pot, or variable capacitors to tune the
resonant frequency of their associated windings? I assume the latter because they change the nature of the arc
from a sharp streamer, to something more glowing and not as tight.
Cheers, Art.
