Bob,
Use the Horz driver circuitry that was in the original monitor as its tuned
to the correct freq. The transformer works best at that freq and will have
the proper driving signal. Caution though as these devices are not toys by
any means. I used to work on TVs and have the most respect for these
circuits. There is the smell of corona and there is the smell of burned
flesh.
A jacobs ladder is always fun to experiment. I would recommend reading the
caution posted on the inside of the monitor when it comes to working with
these voltages.

I picked up an old 14" monitor at Goodwill for $2.00. It worked. I
removed the flyback transformer for HV experimentation.
I hooked up a 9 volt battery on the input and setup a small gap
between the HV output and hv return. I though a momentary 9v pulse
would produce an observeable spark on the output. No such luck.
Any suggests?
Bob
