Thanks for the replies, fellas.  I had overlooked the impedance range of 
the arrestor; LB's figures show 2, possibly 3 bands out of range of the 
arrestor with his computer model.  With my luck, it would be more like 5 
or 6 bands ;-)

I may instead go with a simpler spark plug model, just to bleed static, 
and/or a knife switch.

Thanks for the feedback.  LB lives only a few miles from me, but I hate 
to bug such a busy man.  It's so much easier to ask the list.
