I wouldn't know a dumpling scoop from a ....... so any suggestions are welcome.

I'm near Lawrence, KS and about 50 miles from Kansas City so finding a cooking supply place may be an option. Some relation suggested Pier 1 Imports. I know there's one in Lawrence but I haven't made it up there yet.

I had hoped someone had that exact model for sale by order somewhere but I haven't found it yet.

BTW, I found that metal Skoal can lids are the perfect size for a groundplane. I stuck a new BNC end up through a hole in one then put a piece of wire in it for the element. I used the crimp tube to hold the lid in place. The entire thing was held in place by a bent piece of aluminum with a couple of Wal-Mart suction cups on it. It works great for a quick antenna to slap on the back of the laptop and actually performs fairly well.
