I have NCC-2, 3 el-HiZ and a Wellbrook loop. NCC2 is not useful for weaker antennas until one adds amplifiers and, for peace of mind, antenna guards. Very expensive. I had it once miswired and it blew the inside - no fuse. The only time I use it now is for power line noise canceling. Ignacy,

Hi all, I'm looking at replacing my finicky MFJ-1026 with a DX Engineering NCC-2 this season but I have a couple of questions for anybody here who's got one. At the moment I have one TX antenna for 160 (inverted-L), one TX antenna for 80 (inverted vee), a K9AY RX loop for both and an AUX
