Thank you for standing by for my planned sequencing of the two loops. Last 
night I just crashed out from a lack of sleep over the whole week. And 
today...... well, it's been tough to break loose from the TV. Will work on 
the transmitter finals tonight in hopes a simple mod allows applying a 
signal in reverse without drawing current. Pending the weather, I may head 
north tomorrow, but will let you know.

It's been real interesting to watch the current on this test loop. From the 
wet snow under the loop today I would have expected a lowering of current 
near 20%. This is not the case and in fact I can't see any lowering in 
current! The loop is 7ft above ground and I suppose, based on the diameter 
ratios of ~ 2 to 1, there would be less effect from the ground, but not this 
much less.

Bill
