Chuck,
OK, I have measured the resistance needed to get the null with the SW
EWE. It falls in the 950 ohm area. Unless you could get 950 ohms, you
would not get the null needed for the EWE to work properly. In
comparison, I have put a pot at the end of the beverage and tried to
find the best in a
From my location here in San Francisco I listened for the first of the
scheduled tests from KXTO at 1 a.m. PDTActually I listened from

Local 10 kw KYCY or KYOU as they like to call themselves, due to their
format of I-Pod/YOU-Tube programming was running a show called

In measuring the distance from Flin Flon to Seaside OR, about 1300
miles, about the same in degrees as Ketchikan, AK, 55. So a very good
possibility, as I hear KTKN year around. Both are 1 KW ND nights too.
Ketchikan at 750 miles though. As it gets closer to Fall, CFAR should be
coming back in. I
I listened for the KXNO DX Test on the morning of Saturday 7/14. I listened
during the 10 minutes on each side of the hour at 0400, 0500 and 0600 ELT
(local daytimer WTUX came on at 0630, ending any opportunity of hearing test
programming at 0700). I heard no sweeps or code ID's at all

You might want to do a Google for three point method and fall of
potential. These are the two standard methods for measuring grounding
resistance. You should easily find tutorials from manufacturers of testing
equipment.

antenna phaser to knock down 'common' stations); no sign of the test

I tried for the 1a.m. PDT test; nothing heard from 5 min before to 10 min
after. Wonder if they actually went to day power.

You can use the methods I mentioned regardless of frequency (60 Hz, MW,
etc). It's up to you to provide the proper generator.
I use this: http://www.beecavewoods.com/testequipment/sinewave.html . I like
it because it's simple, parts are readily accessible, and best of all it
puts out enough
