Re: Working with shorter (and cheaper) ferrites - The Backpack FSL

<<< I propose that as a group, we raise money through donations for Kevin S and Gary DeBock to get an absurd amount of ferrite and have an obscenely large FSL made and tested with a documentary video covering the design and testing of it. >>> Well, to be honest, Jerry, an absurd amount of ferrite has already been used here to build 10 FSL test models (presumably giving the eBay sellers "Alexer1" and "Sovtube" the chance to enjoy early retirement), and my wife would probably insist that an obscene amount of $$$ was also used up in the process. Fortunately she knew that I was an amateur radio Extra Class fanatic when we got married (in Hong Kong, in 1990), and my "best man" was even VR2XDR :-) 73, Gary
