Hi all,
        I wound the opposed winding over an existing resonator and 
checked its properties. It appears to look like a straight piece of 
wire the height of the secondary (i.e. a VHF monopole). It resonates
at a frequency considerably higher than my function gen can get to
(6.6mHz odd). On attaching a scope probe to the top (Ctop around 14pF 
shunted by 10 MOhms) it looked to be approaching resonance around 
7MHz. I'll confirm that with the RF signal generator shortly (ran out 
of time before work this morning). So, nothing unexpected except that 
it is a waste of wire.
