My wife and I visited Radio Shack last night for the first time in over a year. I was pleasantly surprised to see that they were selling the Grundig AN200 AM loop antenna for a little over $30. While the same antenna can be purchased online for a little over $25, it was nice to see them stocking a product designed to improve AM reception. Or for that matter, to see them stocking communications products at all.
Granted, I had to climb around a dozen cell phone displays to find them...and avoid about three pushy salespersons, but such is the state of the modern retail store. Hadn't seen this item mentioned here, so I thought I'd pass it along. This little loops make a great "booster" for the typical ultralight, and travel well. I often pack one along with a small radio on business trips to do some DXing on the road. 73, Les Rayburn, N1LF EM63nf 121 Mayfair Park Maylene, AL 35114 _______________________________________________ IRCA mailing list [email protected] http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: [email protected]
