Default Dry Curing Ham

Has anyone ever tried to dry cure a ham, or any pork?
Take a look at this link "Dry-Curing Virginia Style Ham":
http://www.ext.vt.edu/pubs/foods/458...58-223.html#L4
If you have, what ratio of salt by weight to saltpeter have you used?
Has anyone used Morton's Tenderquick to dry cure?
I would like to try this initially with Morton's Tenderquick applied to pork
tenderloin in the fashion suggested by this retired professor, by applying
Tenderquick and refrigerating for 7 days.
Any thoughts would be most appreciated.

Kent
