jack and a loop of wire about 6 inches in diameter taped to a piece of 
cardboard to hold its shape.  This gave me truly excellent nulls off the 
end on 5Mhz and up. Bbroadside to the loop was OK but not as precise.  
This is how I located the part of the house that had the noise...it was 
the power line conduit, which then led me inside (with invitationm 
hihi).
