Err

This OG (Old Git) decided to have a generator test this morning, in
preparation for VHF NFD next weekend. 

As to be expected (OG Experience) a fault was present. Turns out the HT
connector to the spark plug was faulty. Bizarrely continuity was fine, yet
when connected up, nothing. I have effected a temporary repair (OG VHF NFD
Bodge number 1, a week early !)and have fixed a spare HT connector. 

I need to replace the connector, in the mean time am I correct in thinking
that I can add a resistor in series with the HT lead to reduce ignition
noise heard on the radio ?

This OG now off to check the coax's as well....
