We just starting I hope
Thanks Clarence and Mikey,
Let's not be handing out Science Fair awards just yet.
I'm only trying to learn and find "cheaper" means to build this. I hope Shylo can use some of the info from my poor man's setup.
I just wrapped tightly the #4 awg around the two coils tie wraps. Not sure of direction coils are wound inside the can. So just did simple winding for test purposes. From those eariler Kurt Oscillator builds I saw high voltage from the can of the coils. Hitby tried the earth experiments and posted a YouTube video. That's why I thought to test this way. Very surprised to see voltage on the captor loop.
Will post pictures if today's test shows increase in return. Buying more 8' rods to drive in the middle of the input grid.

I understand well enough what I am doing here.
I was powering from a battery and inverter so there really shouldn't be any significant interaction with the mains. I know that is not the best earth ground, but I was just using it just for this test. The fact that I was measuring 35VAC between the secondary loop (which was connected to the inverter hot) and earth ground was interesting. I measured around 14VAC between the secondary loop and earth ground with the inverter hot not connected to the secondary loop. There doesn't seem to be any available power associated with those voltages however. Maybe with a really good earth ground there might be more power available, but I think more likely not. If I get the chance to test with a better ground setup sometime I will test it again. 
Into my ignore list you go...
