Similar one yeah. There was a slight improvement over the Tecsun whip. The main reason I was using that was cause I wanted to connect a recorder to the Tecsun. If you are just using the whip, you loose a load of signal cause the recorder becomes part of the aerial, plus it will inject a bit of interference into the Tecsun. If you then connect an external aerial, this problem mostly goes away.

I've found that too as the earth of the audio cable becomes part of a suddenly inefficient aerial.

IT IS NOT ON 87.6 IT IS ON 87.5, OBVIOUSLY OUR BIG SIGNAL IS THE CAUSE OF YOUR RADIO PICKING IT UP SO WIDE. WE AREN'T ON 87.4 EITHER, JUST TO CLARIFY!!
