I tried a small Adcock years ago, but it didn't do anything. Do you recall any of the details of what GPN made? Size? If it was small enough to turn with a common ham rotator, I'm interested, I sort of guess it's about the same as a W8JK ham antenna except vertical polarization. For a feed, I have an idea about a three toroid system with the secondary output as a series loop through all three. Two primary windings from the elements, and a winding into the output coax. Then amplify the heck out of it, as levels will be low. One of these with vertical elements might be better on low angle pickup than a loop.
