OK. Worth a try. I have picked up a few things with the built in
telescoping antenna, but not a lot. It doesn't seem to cover the full sw
spectrum like the E1 does or have all the E1 bells & whistles.

Dunno whether it's single or double reduction...


I don't have a clue on that one, either.

- Looks cool !


It is! I have a TV tuner & mp3/ogg player on my pc. The auxiliary
input/output jacks allow me to hook the pc into it, then the p7131 into my
stereo. The connection acts as a passthrough, if I have it turned off.
But I'm finding that leaving it on at low volume helps fill the sound
space. Very nice addition to my setup. And it's only about 5"x5.5" on the
front & 7.5" deep. So, it doesn't take up too much real estate on my desk.

Poke at it !


I will. :-)

- Merry Christmas


Hope yours is, too.

If you're using the whip next to a PC you're lucky to hear anything.
The ANT jack is probably for everything except MW (aka AM Broadcast).
