Hi All,

Perhaps this is just too naive-but would it not be possible to put a resistor in series to swamp the Ant.system resistance so that changes in it have little or at least less effect on the current! This would of course require more power to get the required current but for such a low power beacon this should not be too difficult. 73s Laurie.
