Congratulations on the improvement. Can you describe the RF current
meter you built? Or perhaps are there some references to the same?

Best regards,

Gee, while waiting for Eric's answer I found this current meter from
Lyle's great site. I'm sure Eric is familiar with the site and this
meter too. It's a clamp-on coupler and rectifies the rf to output to a
VOM.

All: Would such a current be applicable to tx loops in its present
form? It may have been made for vert apps and a lessor I/R factor.
