First 4 awards based on km: 250K 500K 750K 1000K Fifth on mileage 1,000,000 You need to call MBUSA - 1-800-FOR-MERC - and request the form and then have a stealership sign the paper they ask you to fill out and send it in. All free - badges are very well done and very durable. Chris

If you have a classic (20 years of more) Benz, register it with MBUSA, and qualify for a high mileage award, the badge (along with a HUGE collections catalog with a very cool (and large) offering of expensive scale model cars) will come together in a box with a VERY nice high mileage certificate in a VERY nice silver embossed hard-cover (cloth) folder. VERY NICE and it's FREE. Doesn't list anything other than model and VIN and certifes you reached the indicated "kilomeratage" - but way better than the $100 deal. Besides, Bob Rentro, I think, got a copy of his build card from the Classic center for free. FYI, if your car is not 20 yrs old, you get a much plainer certificate, badge and no coll silver embossed folder. For some reason I got both when I got my 250,000km badge.

The tuning knob controls Maximum signal strength is received by an antenna when it's 1/4 the electrical length of the target frequency. (Think speed of light versus frequency, how far does the wave propagate in that time.) Orientation also matters. It's a coupling thing. I've forgotten all the rest (electromagnetics was never my best area), and I'm not going to look it up again! -- Jim
