Pete,
 
Yesterday in the night or = today in the morning i had another idea. The mail wasn't reflected, perhap= s too much data volume (sri, have forgotten to delete the old mails hangin= g on)

Pete,
 
A last idea for today (PC was= already shut down but i cannot slep now ;-) ):
 
The very simpelst, maybe not th= e worst, way to try it on VLF is using your inv L antenna as a real= vertical loop.
 
That means you could try to tak= e a wire and connect it to the end of your L, place it on the ground back= to the feed point. Then, all you need is a C, probably some 10 =B5F, to= compensate the L of the wire at that frequency. The current will be limit= ed just by the resistance of the antenna wire, and the power of course. Th= ere will be no loading coil, so you reduce much work!
 
Perhaps the overall resistance= will even be in the region of 4 Ohm, so you do not even need a transforma= tion! Just connect the ground wire to the ground of your amplifier and the= top wire of the antenna in series with the C to the AF output and adjust= C for maximum antenna current (e.g. measured by a 0,1 Ohm shunt resistor= and an oscilloscope). That could be done in 1...3 hours of work :-)
 
If your signal will be received= in 6,5km, you could tell us the difference to the before mentioned ways= of matching. And: Since Jacek has reached 750m with 2W TX power and a 4m*= 14m loop, you could be successful with 100W and a vertical loop with more= area and QRSS...
