<< 'm not sure that the two can be compared Roger. I imagine that having
 too high a frequency across submerged electrodes would impede the
 dissolution of the silver, as the ions would be sucked back onto it in
 short order, if they managed to escape at all (pure speculation).
 
 In your situation, plasma arc, I think the opposite is true. The
 frequency would serve to moderate what could otherwise be uncontrolled
 melting of the electrode and inferior outcomes. I have welded stainless
 steel for years using the gas tungsten arc method, and my present welder
 has a pulse feature adjustable to 10KHz (I think) and this is used to
 control the amount of heat entering the work and the size of the weld
 pool.

Ivan: Very interesting point about controlled melting. If there is one thing 
that characterizes my HVAC sputtering process is that I have excellent 
melting control.

Thanks,
