I'm using a random length loop, probably about 200 feet fed with

have and idea, try it, if it works great. If not, back to the drawing

In general there is a magnetic/electric field between the conductors in

Dave,

Just to clarify, is the 'magnetic/electric field' to which you refer

clarify whether it is just how you expressed it or if you are making a
distinctive difference.

Thanks
Buck
