Good deal Ken!
Did you find it tough to get ahold of the relays for the K9AY box? Out where I
live (SW Missouri) I have to do most of my parts shopping online or through
catalogues, so I haven't found time to really look deeply into what it takes
(component-wise) to build the K9AY loop and control box. VERY intriguing design
though. How's it working for you? AND, how well does it work with your R75? :-)

I successfully homebrewed a K9AY [one year ago]and it is a MW weak
signals magnet.Better by far than a kiwa loop that I had [the big
one].I'm having problems with finding a ORP-12 LDR [philips one] for
my Vactrol assemble..but I'm using it changing the terminating
resistor manually.In some rat shack stores with some expired inventory
you can find some of the part needed for example relays ,metal boxes
ect.There is a K9AY yahoo with a lot of good information about how to
homebrew your own K9AY.You can start with the simplest one [only take
about 1 hour to erect one using some easy to get part.
