It's just a wire antenna with a matching transformer or 'un-un'. You
could certainly roll your own for less $.

In looking at it, to me it seems to be a rather short antenna.

That it is. The ad also says that it uses the coax braid as a counterpoise.
That would defeat the shielding and allow the introduction of local noise.
If you would like to build your own (that will keep your shielding intact),
