[CW] OT - Please Excuse - Mag Loops for CW (and other modes)

[D.J.J. Ring, Jr. via CW]

SGC is a company that often irritates me, but except for their marine
radios that you had to deduct 1.8 kHz from the "dial" frequency to get the
carrier frequency for using the radio on the marine WT (CW) bands, and the
yukky QSK on CW, their gear worked well.  Not enough for me to get over my
"they don't like CW" feelings.  They still say that they've made SSB
radios.  How about CW and SSB radios, guys?

But I did find a very interesting booklet on a stealth loop requiring no
ground for apartment dwellers.

One of them has a lashed together system using brooms - four of them - and
(here is the genius applause from me) they use the bristles of the broom to
hold and separate the four strands of wire for the four wire loop.
Excellent.

It's at the end of the booklet:
