I forgot to ask SC- did you ever get you another loop yet?

Not yet. I picked up a S350DL and for AM dxing, it's a butt kicker....
Daytime AM especially, the 350 pulls in a lot of stuff the Grundig G6 and
other radio simply can't.

For shortwave, that's another story, on a strong station, the 350 does the
job, that's about it.
