The ANLP-1 doesn't use 'mounting brackets' -- it's the round pop-open
portable unit. There is someone on ebay selling new ones continuously.

According to PASSPORT TO WORLD BAND RADIO Edition 2008, page 205, this
dealer is quite reputable and ships quickly. If you desire one of
these (and, in my opinion, it is the very best external antenna for
compact portable shortwave radios), I should recommend that you act
fast. No one knows for how much longer this antenna will be available.
Frankly I can't imagine any owner wanting to sell his/hers unless he/
she has mistreated and damaged the antenna in some way. I own and use
five (5) and I certainly wouldn't sell any of them!
Best,
Joe
