Hi Walt,
I have a photo of Kiwa's tropical band loop, from the DXpedition near
Seattle when he and I were testing the prototype. I think it was from
around 1992 approximately. I'll see if I can get this posted on my file
storage space and share a link to it.
I remember the tropical band loop prototype was just as high performing as
his medium wave loop. Too bad he never produced a finished version for sale!
73,
Guy Atkins
