I've had very good luck just using a small back yard loop.

I haven't fired her up yet (still have to get some tubes) but I was wondering if anyone had a manual for the RAK-8. I don't know how important it will be to get the exact -8 version but thought I'd give it a try. BAMA has the RAK-5 but again, don't know what - if any - changes were made between the -5 and the -8.
