[Lowfer] With less frequency...

Dimmers, I hope my 400w amp fries them to hell. Didn't have dimmers 6 months
ago, now some idiot installed them somewhere around here. I hope my fast CW
flickers the hell out of their lights and drives them insane. Hi Hi...How
about making a rectangle 3/4th inch pipe loop or have you tried silver
solder??? A pipe loop would definitely be safer than a wire loop with 400w
anyhow. I think you said the stop sign loop has a Rac of .05-ohms. That
would be about 95a with my amp right??? Mal would love that!!! Hi Hi...

Maybe a tree antenna is just the ticket? How are the light dimmers in the
hood?

You can say that again! I'm making another set of measurements tonight just
to be sure. Hope to come up with some theory to explain this additional loss
- possibly it's some 'proximity effect' from the magnetic field on the
opposite side of the loop, as the loop becomes small.
