I also purchased the $50 Justice Antenna and have had great success
with it. Really pulling in AM stations and increasing listenability
(word??). Very happy on my purchase. And always fun to have a new
knob to turn. I'd recommend it highly although at $100 and shipping
it may be a touch expensive.


That's my concern--the ol' cost/benefit issue. I have no doubt it's a
nice antenna, but how much better is it than my 19.95 Rat Shack loop,
which I'm pretty pleased with? I've had the same c/b issue with the
CC Radio, which is promoted as the last word in AM radios, but is
apparently helped more than a little by adding the $50-100 Justice
antenna. Will this set up be noticeably better than the AM section of
my 7600G with Rat Shack loop (total $180, including SW & FM)?
Perhaps, but for some (like me) relative performance for the dollar is
an issue as well.
