Yes, technically that wire did end up within 2 feet of the radio, but when I packed up to head east, this was taken down, and I'm pretty sure the field remained the same. In addition, I had a ground rod installed about 5-6ft into the ground, and that wire came within 1 foot of the radio also.

Of course, taking the radio outside approx 15 feet away from the shed still retained this signal.

(side note: I'm sure if someone did some extended work in the area of vlf, they would find some very interesting things)

there is one difference between spark plug arcing and a tesla coil - corret me if I'm wrong - is there a part of the spark plug that functions as a secondary coil as in a tesla coil?
