Larry,

>Tonight VD and TMO  are together again(can't keep these guys apart!)
>WA very weak!!

WA was off during most of that screen. I was taking additional readings on 
the test loop and verifying that it isn't effected much by the unfrozen 
ground underneath. The readings for Rac these days are all approximately 
0.07 ohms. It appears I had the sig gen set for a triangular wave by 
accident when I read the discouraging 0.12 ohms just after building it two 
weeks ago.

I'm building a new transmitter for the loop tonight and planning to be 
transmitting by tomorrow night so you can see what 4 amps on a small loop 
looks like compared to the big one at about 1.4A. Hard to beleive that 4 
amps can be acieved at only 1w! For Mike's sake <G>: I = sq rt 1/Rac and sq 
rt 1/.0626 = 4A
