[Lowfer] Musical capacitors and dissipation loss

[Bill Ashlock]

Paul,

You may want to consider a tuned inductor rather that a tuned capacitor. I 
used this approach last winter with my rotatable Lowfer TX loop (Eight 10ft 
sections of 3/4" Cu pipe with 45 elbows), and it was very stable. Used just 
a few turns of #14 over a threaded powder iron slug. This was connected in 
series with one of the loop terminals and the transformer inside the final 
box. This may sound nuts but the slug was threaded to the plastic box and a 
knob was attached to the slug on the outside. I'll send a pix if you are 
interested.
