- Was reading the comments about shorting the unused turns on an RF power inductor. Comments that leaving unterminated open turns (coupled) leads to Tesla Coil effects. I would have to guess that it wo

- ? The problems I have seen were with roughly 80% of the turns unused at frequencies above 17MHz. Shorting with a 1.5uH 12ga Cu coil solved the problems of arcing and overheating the roller contact.

- SNIP Several ham amps including the MLA-2500 use a non shorting switch with no apparent problem. I have never replaced one anyway. The key to success may be in selecting the switch ratings to begin w
