 Hi Rick.

Yes I think I can confirm that.
I connected my signal generator to the earth antenna (300mV p-p at 150 KHz) and walked about with my long wave transistor radio and found maximum signal when the ferrite rod antenna was 90 degrees to the wire, which confused me.

I also connected it to the inverted L and got very little signal from it at all, even when standing underneath it.

I'm busy tomorrow, but I will do a lot more tests this weekend and I will lay out another (slightly shorter) earth antenna 90 degrees to the first one.

73, Tony, EI8JK.

Hi Tony,
   OK. We made a common understanding.
I have heard that there is an orthogonal direction path between a wire
antenna and earth antenna. This means that 90 degree each direction will
get maximum gain. Try to make sure this phenomenon.
