Re: LF: VLF in Canada

Hi Markus, Warren, Stefan,

Thanks for the encouragement.  My quest for thousands of metres of wire
has begun. Stefan's monster coil and Markus' coaxial buckets make me
envious.  Would it be a good idea to pie wind the wire?  G3NYK did
some work with pies on LF and got more inductance for a given amount of
wire than a solenoid.  Perhaps there will be too much shunt capacitance
with 3 or 4 pies.

In the mean time, it may be best to follow up on the loop idea.  The far
end of the 100m wire can be grounded to make it a loop. How much series 
capacitance will be needed and how does one excite it? An xfmr?
