I went out on limb a little with the circuit, but could easily watch the
conduction and shutoff of each triac in the tank.  Needless to say, about
8000 units later and 2 years of operation in the field all seems well.  I am
not a thyristor guru by any stretch of the imagination, so struggled a
little getting this design off the ground.  Probably had a good dose of luck
tossed in too.

Ok, thanks. I hadn't thought about a cap there but now it makes sense.
Normally
one holds the gate to K with 50 ohms and it works. I'll try a capacitor too
and
see what happens.

thanks,
Peter P.
