Gary,

Congratulations on your success with your 14.5" ferrite loop
this morning.  Amazing having the SRF-39 fp hearing stations
before the ICF-2010.

I enjoyed looking at yours and John's pictures on the yahoo
site.  Your ferrite loop is cool as well as John's setup with the
large tunning dial for his ultralight radio. 

Dennis,
Salmon Creek, WA
