You can still have the ARCOK signal without a THC, but it requires a bit of knowledge and a bit of experimenting.
It is risky in that it can fry your BOB or computer.
You need a piece of thin isolated wire wound around the clamp wire from plasma, make 3 rounds and at one end you need to attach a diode and a resistor, all in series with the wound wire, AND another zener diode for 5V connected parallel to that setup, on the BOB or PARAPORT side.
Do a bit of testing and up the windings till you get a reliable signal. Use a 1K resistor.
