RE: yes, that's the one

I tried this this morning and got a surprise I wasn't expecting. The Khz reading dropped to 18.5 from 32.5 when I unwound one loop of the blue wire and reconnected it. Thinking maybe I needed to unwind a loop of each color I did one of the red wire too. It dropped even further. What exactly did you do when you did yours to raise the khz? Which wire and how many loops? Did I do something wrong?
Also puzzled by the fact that the voltage goes down when you take a loop of the bigger toroidial, but the Khz is supposed to go up when you take loops off the smaller one. Seems counter intuitive.
