Congratulations Bob!

36 inches from a 15 inch coil.  This certainly sounds like Schumann
Resonance to me!   Please forgive me, but I've been waiting ever 
since you joined the list to use that pun.  That's been quite a while 
now. : )

May you be as successful in your larger coil.  What , prey tell, do 
you think of when you say 'big'?  Men on this list are often judged by
the 
size of their....ambition!

cheers,
