Hi Geoff,

       Sorry, but you can't apply HF antenna theory to ~DC variations. 
       You might be able to find the correct wire diameter for a single turn 
to provide critical damping. 

       Regards,

Hi Geoff,

       Sorry, but you can't apply HF antenna t= heory to ~DC variations.
       You might be able to find the correct w= ire diameter for a single turn to provide critical damping.
