I think that the transmitter should be optimized for first notch 
quenching, or be a VTTC, for more continuous output. The receiver
should have a primary winding, where energy could be received at
lower impedance (lower voltage, higher current), with the system 
working as an "inverted" Tesla coil, where the excitation comes from 
the secondary.

Kilowatts of input for microwatts of output at a few meters, not more.
