The guy who runs the MFJ loop was in the same situation. He had a ton of wire up
on his property...but the noise was lousy.

Oh yeah! Was looking at some DDR3 memory & may end up with 2 8GB sticks for
around $70 on payday. Paid over $100 for the 2 sticks of 4 GB I've been
running for years. Just wondering if my main system will be able to have
enough memory to hurt me when I do something stupid. ;)

Seen some who use the wire Slinky's. Got nice tuners on them...but at 90 degrees
running behind their house/fence to not take up much backyard space...would be
nice.
