Hi Steve

I have used 1000mm (~3ft) of about 22mm diameter grey pvc waterpipe at each
end of the marconi, together with two egg type insultors at each end of the pipe. 

ie -----------O--===============================--O-------------

Probably not recommended because of the possible accumulation of moisture
in the pipe, but has worked well for me for several years.

Has anyone had success using white PVC pipe (say ~ 1.5" dia) for insulators?
I am wondering if a 12 -18" piece at the voltage ends of my flatop would be
enough to prevent any flash-over?
