Bill, WB6RIJ and I built a loop antenna of channel aluminum of
approximately three foot diameter of 17 turns.   This was resonated
on 137 KHz with about 150 pFd.  A one turn coupling loop was fed to
an old selective voltmeter as a receiver.  The US Navy station near
Sacramento, Calif, read 3 millivolts on this set up.  Unbelievable
strong signal 250 miles away.  Cliff Buttschardt K7RR
