I'm also receiving on this antenna too with much better results than the=20 loop i have. Problem is going to be getting enough routes to earth, my last attempts=20 were getting ~1A antenna current with the same power but it looks much=20 worse on G4WGT's grabber than last time so i guess it's less than 1A. Will do some more improvements over the weekend.
