At a high school near the Great Lakes, they were experimenting with a tesla coil. One with a resonant frequency near 500 kHz. As part of the experiment they hooked it up to longwire antenna. 500 kHz is a marine distress frequency. Later that day when the FCC showed up, they said the Coast Guard had gotten a fix in 15 seconds or so. markz@ssc.uucp
