Hi Marek,
Regarding your comments, when I was recently testing my Tx & antenna I
accidentally touched the LF antenna loading coil & I recieved an RF burn to
the surface of my finger it did not feel like an electric shock & it was
just the same as when I used to work with televisions & recieved many such
burns working around the line output circuits, CRT based televisions produce
up to 25 Kv at 15 Khz so it is much the same.

A story from my last activity on 6/7 December:
Since this accident I don't have to explain _again_ to be careful due
to a really high voltage in the wire and the tuning coil - everybody knows
it too well...
BTW is THIS frequency causing "only" a scalding or an electric shock or
both? HF stays on the body surface, might burn the skin, but what about
137kHz? I am simply curious...
