That's awesome. I'm kind of an AM fanatic:

For the remote tuning did you use some geared down motor (stepper, etc)? Right now my loop's in the house but I would like to have a smaller weather-proof one mounted in the back yard on top of a 16-foot pressure treated post and as far away from background noise as I can get it.
