I have 2 - and in the interest of science and good will, I would be willing to loan my E100 Slider (now almost fresh from its Hawaiian adventure...) to any of you - Anyone have a sense if there is a little brother or sister to the E100? In retrospect I am glad that I did not bring the Eton E1 all this way - the E100 is very directional and has helped null out some unpleasant QRN - the E1's whip on MW would not have done anything. The Grundig G6 and Kaito 1103, also along for the ride, have been virtually useless on MW against the slider - and the Sony Prison has been an utter non-starter - It too needs some large ferrite ears to dig into that soft RF zone we call the pacific. >From what I have experienced with the E100-Slider, heretofore to be referred to the now discontinued E100-s (I hope Gary, John an Guy approve...) or the E100-S - it has performed about as well as a Drake R8 locked on a 1.2 khz filter position connected to a Wellbrook ALA100 and suitable loop of wire -- actually and in all fairness - it is BETTER than that. The E100-s is more sensitive than the Sony 2010 by about 6db (or more) [using my ears here after all folks] and a clear notch above the Eton E1 - It is a shame that the E100 and E100-s are now slipping into the real of legend... and my trip isn't even over yet...
