[BC] dual ferrite AM antenna

[Rob Atkinson]

thanks Paul--you forgot to mention glow in the dark crosses too!   I have a 
feeling steve king would draw the line at the goat gland remedy but a big 
multi-turn loop is probably not a bad idea.

They used to sell baby chicks and Goat Glands on late nite radio too....
find an old tuning capacitor from an old radio and build a box loop.  The
cap will be the most expensive part.

Early this morning at around 4 a.m. on Steve and Johnnie's show on WGN, I
heard Steve King read ad copy for a dual ferrite AM antenna that is supposed
to eliminate skywave fade.

It is sold by C. Crane.   here's a link to it on their website:

Anyone ever used one of these and know if it really works?

thanks,
