1940 Style Loop Antenna
#10

Ron,
Yes, I will give that a try. Sorry I didn't get right back to you, but things have been pretty hectic around here. Recovered a complete stereo that I originally purchased in Hong Kong back in 1969, and am now in the process of bringing all the pieces back to life. Unfortunately, my nephew reduced everything to rubble, and that sometimes brutal master "Nostalgia" has me hooked on putting a lot of time into, once again, repairing what used to be.

The specific equipment was pretty "high-end", for the time, as I went into the Sony dealer and ordered their very best they had to offer. Was surprised, last week to see the FM tuner I purchased then with a starting bid of $400+ dollars. Turns out that it's now a rare piece, and still very competitive among the "high performance" receivers in the FM world. The only problem is that it's not working, and the parts are hard to find. Does that situation seem "familiar" to anyone?

Henry
