In a Pi configuration for the BTA-1R2 would a 10kv vacuum variable be sufficient for the input variable? My calculations indicate a 12kv would be ideal and a 15kv would be best, however, I have located a 10kv at a decent price. My intentions are to set it up for 75 meters at first, but would like to install components capable of going down to 160 if later desired. So, I figure a 100pf - 300pf input variable should work. For the output I figure a 1100pf - 2400pf would do the trick. If I can use a vacuum relay to switch a tap on the coil I think it will work. What do ya'll think?
