I live in a suburb. My dipoles and long wires had so much noise that I
hardly ever would listen to HF. Once I read about the noise immunity
provided by a T2FD antenna, I constructed one to try. It was the best
thing I could have done! It made HF livable in my high noise urban
environment. I almost don't notice the noise I had before. I am able to
pick up signals that my neighbor with a tri-band 3 element yagi is unable
to hear due to his noise.

I would recommend this design to anyone combating local QRM.
