All very exciting William! The only 2 words I could read were "Detector" and "Magazine!" Maybe you can sell your autograph now that you are famous! LOL.

Well done Willems. I think you need to send us all autographed copies of the magazine for Christmas ;)

I looked up "kop en schotel" ..."cup and saucer". What meaning does that have with regards to the magazine article?

Kop means head and schotel we call the coil of the the detector. On one picture you see me looking through the coil.
So kop en schotel. Haha

Also kop -cup coffee on a schotel-disc. Dubble meaning.
