Hello Gerhard,

thanks for confirming the possibility of the high voltage.

concerning the hot part of coil end:
the pvc insulating here is of no use when using 3A radial current.
if hanging  p.e. a one metre long also isolated wire  on the aerial feeder one can see the blue Tesla fire.

best regards
Uwe/dj8wx

Hello Uwe!

Regarding to my experience, the 40kV are real. Considering the high
power (anf thus current) you are running, the voltage would be much
higher on my 550mH coil. 550mh = 31kOhm at 9000Hz = 3A*31kOhm =
93kV.....luckily I just can manage to get about 0.6A and thus Voltages
are lower!

Voltages above 10kV are usual when transmitting on VLF and therefore
every effort should be taken on insulating the "hot" part of the
antenna.
