It really is working for me well at this QTH

But Bob, not to pore any cold water on your good nulling ability, don't 
forget you still have to pull a very weak signal out of the AT noise, and 
this depends to a large degree on how much noise contribution that amp has 
vs the low signal level of a non-tuned loop. Don't forget the Q of the loop 
multiplies the signal; IE: A loop with a Q of 200 has 200 times more signal 
compared to a non-tuned loop. We'll accept no loop design that can't copy 
the loop group up here at least 50% of the time <Har>.
