Eric,
Without knowing the freaquency range of those two bands, It's hard to rate the performance... given that the first two bands don't have much In the way of international stations. Then again...there should be a few medium strength ABC and other local stations, with a "few" International.

I believe I have heard others complain on the same issue. It's a shame realy, as I was hoping the performance of these in car units would be better, but then again, given the nature of SWR, it does not suprise me. Thanks for the input though...I won't bother getting one now, not unless you want to give me yours.

Ps ... As you probably know...SW listening will yield
Much better results later in the evenings and into the early hours...a little portable set would go well with stargazing $49.00 on ebay will get you one with enough bands to make it worth while.
