I expected to have a tuning cap on the loop to tune to his frequency

Slightly cumbersome for my situation but technically true, so a nice idea.
Thanks.

Ya, I'm thinking a 3 or 4 turn loop to fit the back of the radio.
I had to work all day, earlier I had thoughts about putting one my GE
Suoerradio III just to see if it works. A spiral form may be less
cumbersome. I have a bunch of ten pf caps, but I haven't calculated
anything yet so don't know if 2pf to 10pf would resonate with a
reasonable size coil.
