Abstract
A current probe system includes a toroid made from a magnetic material and a wire made from an electrically-conducting material that forms at least one winding about a portion of the toroid. A current is induced in the winding(s) when a time-varying magnetic field is present in the toroid. A float coupled to the toroid floats the system at a water's surface. In use, a buoyant cable antenna is fed through the toroid and the system is moved along the antenna.
