Good morning, all

My project does not have a loop antenna for receiving. At some point in its 65 years, someone removed it, and I am sure this is not a new issue.

Since I will have to make one, could someone post a photo of what it looks like with dimensions of the frame, size of wire, and how many turns. The two fragments of wire that I found appears to be thin copper covered with cloth. A source for wire would be nice, too.

Thanks,
Terry
