I know the feeling I really do not want to spend high dollars on something sealed just to open it and use it. I will wait for one opened or missing minor replaceable parts at a reasonable price. If that is possible. I'm really getting burned out on E-Bays bidders over pricing. My house was built in 1940 and has an antenna and ground built in. The antenna runs the length of the attic and the ground hooks under the house. Both connecting to a plate on the wall. All my radios work good off this except for my 77, but that's another story. So when you get your house just run the antenna in the attic that way nothing will be visible from outside.
