This antenna looks like it would meet my needs - could someone here check it
out and tell this novice if it would work as a simple indoor antenna?

For $8.99, and no shipping charges, it seems very reasonable. Also, he says
that he will supply it with either an alligator clip or a 1/8" plug. Which is
the better choice for SW and for MW?

Thanks,
