Telamon I bought it from Universal Radio it's made by RF Systems and
has an integrated balun. Awesome antenna.

If this antenna is too unruly on the window sill, I will sell it on
ebay and you all can take a crack at it. Auction will include the
antenna plus a 100 foot coax run as well as a shorter 25 foot coax
run, both with terminations.


That is a good antenna design for receive. It's OK for transmit but
depending on circumstances that resistor dissipates some power.

I'm not quite sure what you mean about the window sill as this is a big
antenna. As with all antennas the higher up you can get it the better it
will receive distant signals.
