In my opinion the price alone should stop anyone buying. I know they have to make a profit..but $500 plus! Atleast the mla30 ( rubbish) is only $30 or so. Or a ccw loop much much better than mla30. Comes complete circa $150?? ( look for the twin loop one on cross country wireless website.)
One can get a welbrook for less military, gov¡¯s etc use) . Or order a Lz1aq preamp from Chavdar and make your own loop.
Or even just make your own preamp, but I know not everyone wishes to do so.
Just my opinion.. $500!
