Just a few more observations with receive antennas. This past year, I did a lecture at the DX club about low band receive antennas. Basically, I gave points for various characteristics of the antenna

I receive the list archived and this makes replying to individual posts difficult. It seems to me W0BTU summed it up succinctly. There are time delays and depending on the setup, it it varies from no

I have another perspective on this. For those of you that are pilots, my QTH is on the ring of Class C airspace. Accordingly, many airplanes fly under the "shelf" so they do not have to talk to ATC,

I designed a loop for 100 ohm impedance and fed with coax and 1/4 wave transformer. It has worked well for years. I got the bright idea to replace the coaxial feed with 35' of 450 ohm ladder line and

I have done this with twin SAL-30 antennas. Spaced about 120' apart. Difficult to say A/B how much audible improvement is present. I can say signals are stronger by about 3dB and the improvement on F
