have a look at http://www.home= .pon.net/785/equipment/transmitting/VLF_transmit_2.htm

this exp= eriment used two triangular loops of 15m high and 90m circumfrence in a na= tural area (without conductors etc).

the author was able to copy a= 0.5W cw signal at the distance of 3.3km!

this is much more, than= what is expected from free-space calculations mentioned in this thread.= this is probably the effect of the ground (currents induced in the ground= excite some much bigger ground loops that make up a "secondary" antenna= of bigger size).

another explamantion would be that the field indu= ced at the transmitter site got into the 2m receiver that the author was= using, but i hope that is not the case :)
