Hi Andy, if you think it might help the cause.....where did you apply to??
and I will prepare an application as well. You wont be able to do real
experimentation unless there are a spread of operational stations for
reports etc.

As to 1.4H coils try measuring the inductance of some old audio
transformers, and mod transformers, maybe the odd C-core power transformer.
I think you might find them in the right kind of range, though you may need
an air gap (??) I have a torroidal line transormer (100v line..... I think
its called) from an old slave audio amp that looks about right, and is
certainly good to about 40kHz. Insulation could be another problem though !!
