I am interested in replicating Bob Beck's work in the attached PDF document, dating back to 1978.
After building a variety of coils Beck was able to demonstrate EEG entrainment with a 9-foot coil and by broadcasting an amplified Schumann Resonance frequency.
The idea would be to interface said coil with some of the current systems used for EEG entrainment such as the Procyon AVS system, which utilizes photic light stimulation in conjunction with GanzFrames (sunglasses with multicolor SMD LEDs to generate different patterns and sequences within the EEG spectrum):

The Procyon AVS has several factory sessions, as well as a detailed session editing tool that can be used to create custom sequences to drive EEG entrainment and compel hemispheric synchronization. The down side to such as a system however is that fact that you have to wear glasses for the sessions as the Procyon AVS is photic light based.
I would like to replicate Beck's work with his Schumann pickup coil that he created, and then use that as an interface to the Procyon AVS which in theory would provide for the same benefits as the Procyon AVS but without the requirement to wear the GanzFrame glasses.
Any thoughts on this? My initial goal was a small prototype coil similar to the one described in the attached paper, and driven by a DC amp from someone like Mini Circuits (http://www.minicircuits.com/products/amplifiers_smt_gpw.shtml )
What I am unsure of is the "tunability" of such a coil; Beck's original work was a simple recreation of the Schumann Resonance with a pure sine wave, the Procyon AVS has the ability to run the entire gamut of the EEG range so ideally the coil/coils would be able to also resonate at all of those different bands within the EEG spectrum.
The power output would be minimal, I think Beck references milliwatt output power in some of his papers he published on this subject.
Any thoughts on creating this? I have zero RF knowledge whatsoever unfortunately.
Thanks in advance
