Hi Richard,

Yes I also purchase one from Joe, SM-1 I believe. The circuit when bad so I kept the ferrite bar and used it with just a capacitor. About 4 years ago Steve Ratzlaff purchase some Space Magnets on e-bay. He repair them and I bought two from Steve. My favorite reception with the Space Magnet was hearing JOUB 774 Japan in Zion Park in Utah just before sunrise with the Palstar R-30 cc. Best Regards, Dennis, ----- Original Message -----

I was surprised to see that someone else was still using a Space Magnet. I still have one purchase new from Joe Worcester in early 1970's. My first trans-oceanic DX from England and Germany was heard with the SM2 and a Realistic DX-160. Later it was used to hear TP's in the 1980's, then with a FRG-7700. Today it is usually coupled to an ICOM R75. I've always found it a fantastic, easy to use antenna. Good DX hunting. Richard. Richard Allen 36°22'51"N / 97°26'35"W (near Perry OK USA) |
