Bryan,
I've read somewhere that "ground resistance" at sea can be as low as a few
Ohms, gues the overall efficiency will be determined by the losses in the
loading coil.
I'm looking forward to the results of the salt water experiment.

I spend time in winter on a 30' sail-boat in salt water. Mast height about

unless 136 licences become more readily available. Why does 'Kite' keep
coming to mind?
