Peter,
Last December I tried to. I was conducting CE mark (European
emission limits) testing on a product that I had designed for sale
there. I took my TC secondary on site and drove it with a 1Vpp signal
at it's resonance frequency. At 3 meters, it's signal was just visible
above the background noise. If you are interested, Email me privately
and I will find the E-field plot of it's output for you. I did not try
to get a magnetic field strength measurement then.
My friend at the test house would NOT EVEN consider allowing me to
power my coil at 750VA near his $40,000 (U.S. dollars) spectrum
analyser;)
Regards,
