Notes:

The sample was extremely anisotropic. In the first measurement it became clear that the sample was anisotopic. The next three measurements were made by placing the sample on its three surfaces labeled above.

Measurement #1 Good measurement, noticed sample was anisotropic. Coil's dipole was horizontal.

Measurement #2 Coil's dipole was rotated to vertical. Measured with the triangular face (S1) flat or perpendicular to the dipole.

Measurement #3 Coil's dipole was vertical. Measured with face that cuts off the triangle (S2) flat or perpendicular to the dipole.

Measurement #4 Coil's dipole was vertical. Measured with the third face (S3) flat or perpendicular to the dipole.
