I saw a big Shortwave Radio, on the front of the Radio it said, The
Octopus.Weird looking, it had something like a horizontally mounted
clear plastic thingy that was revolving around clockwise and counter
clockwise on the front panel of the Radio when the Radio was being used.
What was it?

It's the orignal prototype of the tiny-tenna. Don't let Arky Bob hear
about this!

My tiny-tenna is 130 ft in lenght and 30 ft higher, if it was mile long
it would be great for VLF ...
