The relatively inexpensive Yaesu FRG-7 also uses the Wadley loop. It's

Somebody once wrote about them that Yaesu were so pleased at getting the
Barlow-Wadley loop working in solid-state that they forgot to give the
receiver any rf performance :-)

There's a whole raft of mods to bring it up to scratch though...
