SO...the bad news is, The SCT-100 portable antenna goes up in price,now $75.00,8 post in CONUS, because manufacturing costs are catching up with us. Lots of parts are hand made, so lots of labor goes into each unit.
5 layers of material goes into each cone-shaped helix, lots of copper conductor material, and real silver wire on the inside connections.
The good news is-we are saving up to buy a 3D printer, so we can make the cone-shaped forms faster and cheaper. And some of the other small parts ,too.
This is the best, most portable VHF-UHF antenna, especially for experimenters, and people who want an emergency antenna in their go-bag. We carry ours in Bat-Bags, so we can put accessories and extra grids and radio gear in with it.
see them on etsy.com , and join the Radio Hunters.
