OK Bert, thanks a lot for your answer.

I have already found that manual, but it don't explain the wiring with a
schema.

I had found this link :

But I wonder whether it is the good manner, to connect the coax at the
bottom of the coil , because I'm afraid that the wire between the alligator
clip and the bottom of the coil makes a short circuit which could decrease
the quality of the active part of the coil.
I wonder whether the original wiring, wouldn't be not isolated from the
bottom of the coil...
Another idea would be that the wiring would be the same that the wiring of
the "miracle antenna" which ran nicely at my last tests ?
