I found the DAG loop and the compass, but it was in the U.K.

Didn't have to sell my soul.  Just rented it out for awhile. ;-)
Where there's one, there may be others.

I'm still missing the Sense antenna- a telescoping whip, 
larger in diameter than most you see, with a banana plug on the end.
Someone kindly pointed me to one similar on Ebay but alas,
it wasn't the right size so still searching.

The DAG receiver's RF amp isn't properly tuned without
that loop.   Perhaps designing a substitute would be an 
interesting project but don't know how many are out there
with any interest.  
It's a good rig for what it was designed to do:
DF strong carriers. Thus, it has no AVC.
Fun to tinker and SWL with and certainly "eyeball candy" 
at any radio display but it's no "communications receiver."
