Not an easy one to answer especially as Wellbrook's amplifier circuitry is top secret. A few years ago I read an article that it was all very much the snake oil syndrome! I can't really comment on the amplifier but the simple two transistor amp works as well as if not better than my Wellbrook did when it was new.
Of course the acid test is to compare like for like, only then can we make judgement.
I am going to build a 2 metre single turn loop and possibly a 2 metre circular multiturn loop for the crystal set projects.
I'm also planning a meet for the 29th of May ans it would be good to get others input on all of this and do some tests too.
Right now it's all down to health though as to the construction projects and the meet up.
