Re: [Amps] Ceramic capacitor ratings

[Peter Chadwick <g3rzp@g3rzp.wanadoo.co.uk>]

Why should the current have gone up? Yes, the unloaded coil Q is higher, but 
the working Q should, all things being otherwise equal, the same. Thus the 
circulating current is the same. There's less loss resistance in the coil, and 
as efficiency is proportional to the ratio of unloaded Q to loaded Q, the 
output is higher. 
The loss in the capacitors may or may not be negligible, but I don't see that 
it should have changed very much.
