Re: LF: The Mystery - "Eve"

["Dick Rollema" <d.w.rollema@freeler.nl>]

Dear Ian,

After I obtained a battery fed selective level meter (W & G SPM-12) I
prefer to use that for FS measurements together with a single turn
untuned loop of 1 x 1 square metre because there is no need for
calibration. There is a simple relation between FS and voltage induced in
the loop.  I don't know whether you possess a suitable battery fed
SLM but if you do it is far less work to construct the loop than my
portable FS meter plus Helmholtz coils for calibration.  
Instead  of the SLM you could use a battery fed receiver with an
S-meter.
At  home you could translate the S-meter readings into voltages
using a signal generator.
