Michael,
I'm thankful Australians feel so little need to copy our technology.
When working at the Univ. of Wash. I met far too many students who
came to learn our approach and had no respect for their own
cultures' methods. When I told them that in our grandfathers' youth
we depended on such crafters as copper smiths, glass blowers, and
potters to prototype our technology, they thought I was lying.
Regards,
Steven

I am using a geared motorised volume control motor from an old
stereo amplifier to remote drive the large ganged tuning capacitor
using an additional shaft geared reduction drive coupling device to
slow down the speed of turning the capacitor, choosing a lower
voltage to drive the motor with will also slow down the turning
which will allow more accurate tuning or peaking of the loop.
Once mine is finished then I will post photos of all the important
parts for all to see.
Best regards!
