When I bought mine a few months ago, it was $99 for the antenna and one
matchbox; each additional matchbox was $20. 73, Stan WB2LQF

Does anyone know what this antenna costs?
On the website, it says "E-mail for pricing."

FYI - if any Listers here happened to work 3DA0US in the last couple
of days, you might be interested to learn that he was running a KX3
at between 5 and 10 watts depending upon his DC input level. His
antenna was a PAR Omni Angle on a 22 foot fiberglass pole. He made
400 contacts in two days of operating and he was only on a few hours
each day. In a couple of weeks he'll be operating as 7P8US with the
same rig and antenna.
The PAR Omni Angle is only a 7 foot aluminum rectangle with a
matching network and it only weighs a couple of pounds. Most hams
would probably dub the Par Omni Angle a "suboptimal" or "compromise"
antenna.
A well versed operator, knowledge of propagation, patience,
preparation, perseverance and top shelf equipment goes a long way to
offset the handicap of a "compromise" antenna.
