Hi Old Restorer,
I remembered seeing this in one of my old radio books, Radio For The Millions, Popular Science Publishing, 1943, on page 86... http://37.media.tumblr.com/58132522349bc...1_1280.jpg ... It may be of help to you. Sorry, exray, but, depending on how it is connected, it is a very effective type of antenna for local and medium distance reception, that is why it was used in so many sets of a later period.
