Lets build a spirit radio

[Sebzy]

I've been inspired by the works of Nikola Tesla and mrfixitrick over on indestructibles http://www.instructables.com/id/Spooky-Tesla-Spirit-Radio/ and have set myself the goal of constructing a large Spirit Radio for this years Maker Fair here in Dublin to teach people about vintage radio. Well I think I'm going to need some help in scaling this thing up.

Sure it's not as simple as bigger aerial and capacitor
