only 12-15 feet? and what sort of readings do you have at such small
distances _without_ load capacitance - tens of volts?

load on what? i`d throw away this large 30x30 sheet of copper to keep
the load small :-)
how high is the input resistance of your scope? i
don`t quite understand what do you mean saying "It measures the peak
DC potential", coz at any case the time constant of input of your
scope doesn't stand up to the time constant of electroscope.
