I don't disagree, it is very possible that I could have made or bought a
better SWL antenna!
My wife asked me to seriously consider the MTA because she didn't want a
longwire or sloper strung up outside.
If I don't like the MTA, I'll try to sell it and then try something
else.
If it works well, then I'll consider it $200.00 well spent.
For me, it's worth a try!
I'll share the results.
