The L1 coil is is only one layer with the one end free for the AV plug or FL tubes. Once this is started you can remove the base resistor. Hello, Slayer007 and welcome! With your suggestions, I'll have to revisit this fascinating little circuit. I should note that I will be traveling in just a couple of days to see friends and family in the midwest. Therefore my posts here will be limited for a couple of weeks. But I will try to keep up from motels, etc.
