	In thinking about the magnifier subject I just had the thought that my
low-frequency ham station has the same configuration as a magnifier.
High-power signal source (low impedance transmitter output) connected to
the antenna by means of a series-resonant loading coil.  You can even
draw some pretty good arcs off the antenna when the transmitter is
putting out only 100 watts.
