Lee ,

The AMRAD antenna uses that very expensive transistor and I have never 
personally had any experience with it .

However I know a lot of us are using this antenna , designed by PA0RDT .

It is so small and simple. The mounting enclosure is about anything you can 
imagine . I believe one of us on this list has one built in a baby bottle !! 
Its ok he used to be my neighbor , and he is totally well I think totally 
sane . <grin> He uses it all over the world , so it is a good portable 
antenna too .

Here is one of the links to it :

Let me know what you think Lee.
