Default Another newbie inquiry into portable antennas.

Hey folks...

I have a Sony 2010 with I've just dragged with me to Boston. I've
found an amazing public park at the very tip-top of the city with only
your average suburban interference within 25 to 30 feet. The 2010's
whip performs okay here at night -- nothing outstanding in the DX
department -- but I'm aching for a bit more juice.

Would any of the available loop antennas help to enhance the
experience at all? I don't unfortunately have many options as far as
throwing wire in trees and the like, as I'd be DXing from a public
park that has no lights after-dark, and I'd hate to trip or choke
someone by accident. Plus from what I've heard, the 2010 doesn't play
too nicely with random wire antennas. At any rate, please comment on
any of these antennas, or others you might recommend instead, for
outdoor public use...

- Sangean AT60
- Kiwa Pocket Loop
- Sony AN-LP1

Thanks in advance!
