Wow! Good find. I work at a Radio Shack and I didn't know this. We haven't carried this antenna in a long time, but when we had it it was a good one. If you can find it at $9.97 then go for it. Our cost is 5 times that much on this thing so depending on which store has it you might not get the $9.97 price. (Non corporate owned stores can set their own prices) Make sure you call ahead for this as it will be a hard one to find. Good Luck.
