Save your pennies for a Palstar R30CC. I have one in my truck and often DX within a hundred feet of a kilowatt tower. I made a two stage notch filter that helps, along with nulling the tower using the copper tube loop. I also fnd that by positioning the loop properly, I can null the tower and a distant station at the same time. I've even been able to run out a 900' length of wire and phase down the tower so it isn't a problem.
