"You might want to look at an article in QST by K6STI, who
experimented/made a "noise-cancelling" antenna. It was a wire antenna, 25
or more feet on a side, with open wire feed lines from two opposing
corners that went to a center pole and box with a matching xfmr, etc. 
One of the feed lines was twisted 180 deg to cancel local noise signals. 
QST article was Sep 1995, page 33. and pages following....might be worth
a look."

I tried that antenna and it was a waste of time, at least for me.
