Mark,

For around $60, you can get a decent new antenna. I have the Anli-A100
(http://www.anli.com/Webpage/wP7.html). Very sturdy, well built antenna. I
got mine from Advanced Specialists (http://www.advancedspecialties.net/)
I'm not affiliated, just a satisfied customer.

I'll second Tom's opinion of the Anli A100. It's a superbly made antenna and
performs much better than the Cushcraft AR-270 it replaced.

Thanks to both of you for the info. I'll certainly have a look.

Funny thing...I'm replacing an AR-270 also...
