Calling all loop club members and sympathizers:

All Electronics Corp at http://www.allcorp.com has 2000pf @500v dipped 
silver mica caps for $0.35 each. (These are listed in Newark for ~$3) I 
typically parallel three of them together and then experimentally add 
addition mica caps in parallel to bring my loops into resonance. Using three 
in parallel guarantees less than 1/2 A and 150vac in each capacitor when 
used with a typical Lowfer loop.
