Hi Jerry,


I am using a pair of short Beverages spaced 200 feet into a MFJ-1026. It does a great job of enhansing weak signals. Also can walk the nulls around to take out noise and QRM.

Talking about "noise cancelling", what about the MFJ-1025 which claims to provide a "60 db null to wipe out noise and QRM" using a separate external receive antenna (maybe a beverage or a small loop??). It even has an "RF sense T/R switch" that "automatically bypasses the receiver when transmitting".
Has anyone tried one of these things? Does it work at all?


73, Jerry K3BZ
