8877s are pricey, but you can get essentially the same performance
from a single GS-35b for about $120 including shipping. It requires
slightly more drive, but well within the capabilities of the typical
100-watt transceiver. Also, if you are handy with simple metalworking
tools like a hole saw, you don't even need a socket. It can be
mounted directly to the chassis.
And of course, it's much more impressive looking to your family and
friends. :-)
