About 700 milli-amp. That's loop current now.

Subject: [Lowfer] antenna current

Hi,

Finally built an RF current meter.  What an idiot -- should've done it
long ago.

I improved my antenna current almost 40% from a lousy 65mA to a (also
lousy) 90mA with only about 2 minutes worth of moving the loading coil
around a little bit.

Now that I have the meter I'll be working continuously to improve that
until I get to something respectable.

What antenna current are some of you running?
