Diggerodell,
Well since the Starduster is no longer made and history that leaves you the Top One. |

I once owned an orignal Starduster, didn't care
for it. Plus, top broke off. I noticed years ago
that the people that had them up in my town, all the tops were gone.
Be glad there off the market!

The Top one is a fine antenna. But I owned a starduster and it was great too. The m-400 is a foriegn made type of the starduster. Owners around here seem to really like it. You won't go wrong with either one. If I was buying another antenna I'd have to try out that Imax 2000.

I would go for the I-Max 2000.I've owned both A-99 and now the I-Max2000 the I-Max2000 by far out performs the A-99!I dont get the static noise like some people have,I do have the ground plane kit wheather that helps or not.I have heard of a antenna thats made in California thats suppose to be a good groundplane but the price seems a little steep $250.00!
Take Care!!Gage |

ken_rucker,
Copper used to carry the Plastic and Metal hubs for the Moonrakers and PDL II antennas.
As both antennas have been out of production for quite awhile now Copper has sold out and they are no longer available.
Sorry I cannot be of more help.
