Must be Zeus...Зевс
ZE is assigned as an ITU Prefix to the UK
Maybe the Russians have sent their Boomers deep?
Hope it doesn't mean heightened tensions between Russia and the US...

John, Markus, thanks both.
I had read the ZEVS article
but not the Ground_dipole one.
The former was originated by someone who seems
to be a Russian
electrical engineer, so I
guess that he's likely to be a reasonably
reliable source, though we still don't seem
to have a concrete primary
source - unless
there is something buried in the Russian language
references in the articles.
and the Ground_dipole article appears to
confirm that it is in fact
called Zeus.
Interesting to note the use of
the name of a God in what was an atheist
country!

Is the name in fact Zeus and we've lost something in the
Transliteration?
Yes. At
least according to
Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground_dipole
VLF engineers seem to have a
hang for BIG (nick)names - Goliath, Alpha &
Omega, Zeus...
