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,
