Wonder no more. With a coupling loop it's possible to load them up on at least the 160 metre amateur band. Video demonstrates how it's done with contacts made with 10 watts of AM on 1.8 MHz. The variable capacitor and coil used in series with the feed coil is the ground tuning unit described in a previous video.
