Sorry, Larry... The loop was already well on it's way to being repositioned
when I came in for a pit stop and saw Bill's note.

Bill:

I checked the current prior to taking down the antenna. After removing some
caps I was able to trim it to .760A.

After I finish moving the antenna I will re-peak the tuning, record the
current, record the capacitance, swap in your coil and record the current
again without changing capacitance.

Then I have to come in and set a trap for the mouse that just ran across the
floor. Oh, the joys of owning a building built in 1832.
