Ok, so I have made up my mind and decided to purchase the Wellbrook ALA
330S antenna for my Drake R8B. My next purchase will be a rotor for it.
Will a regular plain Jane $65 setup for TV antenna's work, or do I need
one specifically designed for HAM/SWL use?

A 1-meter diameter loop shouldn't require anything bigger than a
decent tv rotator.
