I still want to learn, do you have a specific site with a good broadcast
band receiving antenna. Preferably with a null I can rotate
and that will fit in 150 ft.



how deep a null, how narrow/wide?

One of the noise canceling boxes with two antennas will do quite well.
Timewave ANC-4 is one possibility
MFJ 1026 is another.
DX engineering NCC-1


For BC band, almost any antenna will work.

If you want physically small you could use any of the active antennas..
You could use a MFJ1020C,1022,1024, Ameco TPA, DX Engineering ARAV3-1P, etc.
The MFJ 1026 canceller includes an antenna.

A whole bunch of kits out there..
Ramsey AA7B, the Amrad antenna, ..


If you want to get more sophisticated, some sort of software receiver
might be better approach (you could use more than 2 antennas, for
instance). There's not much off the shelf, but if you're ambitious you
might look at K1LT's array using softrock receivers.http://www.k1lt.com/
