Very tidy shortwave antenna
Light compact and works, try hanging it outside your window for better results, retracts nicely for storage and transport

It really works... but it's just a bit of wire.
1. Gives a great improvement to SW and VHF radio reception2. So does a length of any old scrap wire you happen to have lying around3. It's neat and tidy4. The rewind is a bit fiddly, but if they included a knob instead of a little dimple, it wouldn't be quite to neat and tidy.

A surprisingly good short wave signal booster.
I got this with the xhdata d-328, just to give it a go. It works surprisingly well. A definite signal boost. Very fragile looking gizmo, but gentle handling, and i'm sure it will last a long time. Brilliant idea.

Poor design
Not too impressed. On the plus side the unit is conveniently small and can improve reception depending on the radio and atmospherics. However the part that clips onto the telescopic ariel is designed for the thinnest (and therefore weakest) part of the ariel. Since it is a very tight fit, it is really easy to bend or damage your ariel. It would be better if that part was redesigned to put less stress on the fragile ariel.

Be gentle putting clip on antenna
This is good to have whether indoors and more particularly, outdoors. It clarifies the sound and gives greater reception. Pocket size and a decent weight , with a clip for antenna as well as clip and string to hang object whether camping or inside building. Would definitely recommend

Must have for a small shortwave radio
I bought this for a small handheld radio for use with shortwave stations and lower frequency ham transmissions. For the price the quality is generally good and it works well allowing the antenna wire to be easily stowed away when not in use. And it can be clipped to a telescopic antenna or plugged into a 3.5mm socket, which covers pretty much all my usage scenarios. Plus, the size is small enough to easily slip in a pocket for expeditions and seaside picnics.However, I have knocked one star off for a minor problem. As my photo shows, the hanging clip is very fragile. Partly that's due to thin plastic with dainty hinges, but largely it's because the spring is much too strong for the clip design. So I took it out of the box and lightly pressed the ends together and boinggg - it rapidly disassembled itself. I put it back together a couple of times and the same thing happened. So I've attached another clip in its' place and all is now well in the world of my antenna.

It's a help
Very handy for a indoor signal and it's not expensive
