To continue the saga......

I fitted a variable capacitor to my 10 foot circumference 1mtr loop and am
able to tune 80 to almost 15 meters...works well..but.........

How to fit a motor drive !!!.....there seems to be nowhere to acquire cogs,
pulleys or gear sets....no model shops around that carries components, that
i`ve googled for anyway..(now when i were a lad! ).... ;-)

Can you imagine how fast that electric motor turns the capacitor, even with
reduced voltage???..you have to be quick i can tell you or you miss the
sweet spot heh,heh....

Seriously, any ideas to slow the tuning rate will be most welcome .

Thanks.
