I'm still unclear, I fear, on how the 'Tesla coil as receiver' will
'not' pick up the 'conventional' radio waves.
It is my experience that a grounded Tesla coil receiver will pick up the
emissions of a conventional LF radio transmitter (such as WWV, Ft.
Collins, Colorado) operating on the same frequency to which the Tesla
coil receiver is tuned.
It also appears that a conventional ungrounded or 'non-counterpoise'
antenna such as a tuned dipole or tuned loop in free space is receptive
primarily to conventional radio waves and not so much to the other form
of electromagnetic field energy believed to be associated with operating
Tesla coil wireless transmission-reception systems.

Hi Gary,
Until its existence is established, how does one determine whether or
not an antenna is sensitive to "the other form of electromagnetic field
energy BELIEVED to be associated with operating Tesla coil wireless
transmission-reception systems"?
