Nobody said it doesn't work.  In fact, as Tom Schiller pointed out in 
his (fairly) recent QST article, "Everything works!"  In a careful  
comparison the Moseley Pro came out poorly against the competition.  
You can read all about it in the report prepared by K7LXC and N0AX.  
You MAY indeed be missing out on better performance, although I don't 
recall whether Steve and Ward tested the 57A.
