My 5 band, Philco 37-116 Deluxe was built to use the 1/2 wave dipole Philco High Efficiency Aerial. Well, being as this is no longer available, what sort of new antenna would anyone recommend? I want to be able to receive all 5 bands well, with little interference (obviously).

I have seen these new, dipole "slinky" antennas advertised, anyone ever try these? Does size (length) really matter? Icon_eek
