I have all the ALA100 series antennas - and a couple of Wellbrook FLG
series antennas -

What can I say? They rock on long wave, they rock on medium, they rock on
shortwave. They are directional and
they reduce atmospheric and local noise by around 80% under some
circumstances -


Flag antennas are awesome but without the pre-amp (that the Wellbrook FLG
series does...) there is not a lot of signal.

You're are going to have lots of fun with it.

Just ordered the North American version of the Wellbrook Large Aperture

have used this antenna for MW DXing.

Iâm going to replace the termination and feed point portions of a âFlagâ
antenna that I have mounted on wooden poles at the edge of my property. It
favors the West, but even with a pre-amp the signal levels are low. Hoping
for stronger signals from the ALA100LN.
