Crater Lake in Oregon is 1,950 feet deep. It's the deepest in the US. 11th deepest in the world. I think it's the most beautiful place I've even seen.View attachment 2205512

Well I bit the bullet on the new coil.
$653.76 to your door.
Probably see it in June.
The FCC has to sign off on it yet.
Tarriffs are an issue, or a $$$ grab.
 

Well I bit the bullet on the new coil.
Yep, they got my pre-order as well. Hoping it might help in the iron patch in my yard. Some areas have so many signals its really hard to separate with the 11" coil.
 

My brother called up and said he was at the salvage yard and some guy was unloading a 100 year old drill press to throw on the scrap heap, and do I want it. Oh hell yes I want it!
Made the 3 hour drive to Stockton (good chance to see mom also) and picked it up.
I figured it would be needing a complete resto. Nope, a major degreasing and re-lubing and it purrs like a kitten!
Actually it's the quietest press I've ever heard. The motor is wired to run on either 110 or 220, and it's got a 5/8" Jacobs ball-bearing Super Chuck.
