Excellent article, Gil!!! And the illustrations are truly worth1000 words. One thing that you didn't mention (or maybe I missed) is how the outboard ferrite bar affects the vaunted nulling ability of the '59. Better, worse, the same? I'm sure it would be an intuitive judgement at this point, but whadda ya think.
That article just has to get some of our other "handy" folks to work. Speaking of getting to work, in the Super-Modified category, there are all sorts of Firsts and Records yet to be established. How 'bout some submissions??????? You mentioned getting the vhigh Q tuning capacitor from "Bill Turner's site," but didn't give a URL. I googled Bill Turner and ferrite and got lots of references to him, but no website. Could you give us the URL, please, and maybe append it to the article?? Thanks for the article... that is the direction that I'm going to head. John B.
