	Quad
		If you set the design of the Quad 22 in the context of its origins in the late 1950's, where the extent of domestic hifi in most homes was the furniture-like radiogram, you can understand what a great leap forward this system was.
		Quad designed the units so they could easily be mounted into wooden cabinets (by removing the two rear screws securing the metal housing, sliding the units into a cut-out, and re-securing) in order to smooth the public's transition between Radiogram and domestic hi-fi.
		The Quad II was originally configured with a 15 ohm output impedance, but if necessary this can be modified to 8 ohm by changing a couple of tags on the output transformer.

	The Ultimate Guide to 11 Meter CB Antennas
		The quad loop was invented by an amateur radio operator by the name of Clarence Moore.
		One of the biggest advantages to using the quad loop that it is impervious to rain/sleet/snow/sand static noise.
		The best configuration would be a loop arranged in a a perfect circle (instead of a 4 sided quad, or three sided delta), but that arrangement would be difficult and expensive, so the four sided quad is the closest practical way to form a loop at 27 MHz.

		My Quad 22 control unit let me down because the pot was noisy, the RCA connectors on the back had oxidised and a good base line would start microphonics, as the plugs, which never seem to fit tightly in older phono sockets (a slight change in dimensions when we went metric?), rattled around.
