HELLO Eric: Try Lyle's web site he has a good article on building an
amp-probe for measuring antenna current. Congrats on your success

I will do that, but currently (again, no pun) I only have a piece-of-junk 
digital multimeter that will not measure current :(  Yup.  I'm using 
Lyle's protoboard circuit with a 12.5V supply.  I should be BELOW the 1W 
limit and look forward to tweaking that out when I get a better meter ...

Thanks for your reply,
Eric
