[ARC5] [Milsurplus] Command Receivers on the Broadcast Band

[J Mcvey]

 I never saw one of those (ARC?) broadcast receivers with the loop option.That's a rare beast.The Arc beacon receivers all had the loop option. I've seen lots of those.

 Sadly, YVKS  has been QRT for a while now.
 
 95% of the time you'll bemuch  better off with a tuned loop rather than a wire antenna.
