As with most products, performance is a function of the application
and the environment. I have an AN-1, and have found that when I'm in the
North Woodsit does a creditable job for casual DXing. It also requires
the right radio and doesn't do **** for some.


It's not my first choice for use in the city, or even at home, but on
the road, it's a particularly useful item.

$50 is more than a fair price, but I've seen them go higher. And not
unjustifiably so.

Maybe someone thinks that it a Collectible ? ~ RHF

Yeah, and Mike is a 'Collector', but he just can't get a grip on pricing.
