Mike: Just shovelled a path thru snow to the 3 mH coil ( the one with a foot of snow on the top ) and the 137.780 kHz is back on the air, eagerly awaiting a report from your frozen location. The transmitter current is up about 20% with these zero degree days... might even radiate some more - the rf burn and hole on my finger confirms that something is happening - hi ! Mitch
