6"coil wire used in alignment ?? why
#2

Hi,
Not sure where those instructions came from but I'm guessing that the loop is simply a technique to transmit from your signal generate to the set's own built-in antenna loop without making any direct connections. Its a common technique that I use much of the time. Connect the small loop to the generator output and place it nearby the radio's own loop which remains connected as normal.

As far as the meter type that's mostly personal choice. I'm (almost) a full convert to digital myself but either is fine and whatever you're comfortable with will do. Some of the older digitals are a bit slow to respond.
