Thank you.

After studying the diagram under Experiment #2 on this link http://jnaudin.free.fr/avramenko/avramenk.htm I managed to charge a capacitor to about 5V using a single wire connected to the collector of the transistor as the "Avramenko's Generator", while connecting a long strip of wire next to the capacitor between the two diodes.

Hi Posi,
You mentioned,

I will give more details if desired, but I first wanted to see if there was any interest and if this is not perhaps a well-known phenomenon.

I wouldn't mind seeing a drawing/schematic/illustration of your wireless setup if you're able. If not, I'll live with it.
Thanks,
Bob

It is a very simple circuit, I hope you are not too disappointed. Maybe I should have used "transmission with one wire" or "open circuit" instead of "wireless" in the topic title, since there is one conductor connected to the collector side of the transistor. The long strip of wire to the right is exactly that: a long strip of wire connected to the circuit at the point shown. I have not investigated the effect of physically earthing that connection.

There is an interesting phenomenon in that for some LED's I have to hold both terminals in order for it to light up, while this has a negative effect on those that light up with a connection only to the negative terminal.

There is a small error on the diagram: The DC input is 3V.
