I plan on getting the 259 or 269. Money's tight right now though.

I just ran the numbers of the antenna through a design program and it is supposed to be 12.1 turns on the coil. It is at about 11.9 right now. I had a feeling that it needed more turns, that is why it wouldn't jive when I shorted the coil at different points.
