Brian (the OP) seems to have gone quiet; perhaps we have overwhelmed him with different opinions? While he did say that he didn't want spend very much, perhaps if he could turn that in to a number, it would focus the discussion.

If his budget is really tight, it could be that he actually has few options other than a simple Antex, and that would not be anything really terrible...really.
Many (most?) of us cut our teeth on Henley Solons, which I suppose were the Antex of their day!
