Bruce,
Mentioning CBK, I find I hear them generally 24/7 here off the Eastern
beverage, Summer and Winter. It is fairly poor during the Summer but
still heard. In the Winter like gangbusters and that is well over 1,000
miles from here. I used to use KFI, but after they lost their big tower,

A big surprise many years ago was hearing CBK at 2 PM local on a July afternoon
here in Victoria. I was testing out a Sanserino loop I'd built for
Nick,
Isn't the tx site for CBK still in Watrous?
I know it used to be there. That 50 KW ND on 540 must cover most of
Central Canada 24/7 hands down.

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

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.

Down below at #, I meant to write resistance of the ground.
Sure as shootin' someone will think old Chas has jumped the

See my short-short reply to Larry Helms about this.
I do want to try a metallic return and have enough

plains of North Carolina.
I first took the gutless route and measured the
