Interesting- looking forward to other loads as well. Are you planning to add capacitance at the receiver? How do you measure resonance? I just build a grid dip oscillator that works well to measure resonance for these applications... Thanks for the video.
Todd Berg Hi Tod if you have Face Book please ask for permission to my Museum Book. I have there a a few videos which show a simple method of how to measure secondary and primary with any scope, one resistor and signal generator. Link ..... m.facebook.com/groups/593048544200980
Todd Berg no need for capacitance. For power reception from Tesla’s Colorado Springs Notes, best reception for ground wave receivers was with coil self capacitance with no additional top capacitacne
Todd Berg If I add the capacitance it will throw it off the peak resonance. That binding post is it :-). When you ask for my Museum access and you go on posts. It is post 16 and 17 from the top - the videos of how I measure resonance. It is very simple and precise method and it doesn’t require complex equipment except oscilloscope and signal generator.
Canadian Tesla Technical Museum I had a look at the July 16th 1899 entry where he mentioned maximum capacity as practical for the best movement of current and see the note about increasing coil self capacitance. Is this how you wound your secondaries? Bifilar with the exit of one tied back to the entry of the other? I can see how that would be useful- Wouldn't a spherical terminal also reduce streamers and increase the efficiency? Maybe I'm not understanding- still fairly new to the single conductor world.

Canadian Tesla Technical Museum Thanks for the link and the information. I'll go back to my copy of the notebook also.
