[Boatanchors] Pickup loop

[telegrapher at att.net]

Some months back i asked about a pickup loop that was installed either 
in broadcast transmitters or somewhere in close proximity so that they 
could provide sufficient power to operate a Gates modulation monitor. 
The Gates unit needs approximately 10W to drive it properly.  I'm 
wondering if a person couldn't use a capacitor arrangement to provide 
the same results.  TMC uses that on their power amps to provide 1/300th 
of the output power to drive a monitor, scope or freq. counter.  Now i 
have a sealed box with the proper connectors on it that takes 1 kW input 
and delivers i forget what (1 mw maybe) to the output in a T 
configuration.  It's not a big box either so i'm suspecting that it's a 
capacitive type unit.

Am i thinking along the correct lines here or has the fire gone out in 
my pipe?  Is this a reasonable line to pursue?
