But here is the interesting thing. On the horizontal antenna, the
listening is a whole heckava lot more pleasant. Another item of interest



Mike, you will be aware that a lot of commercial HF amateur
transceivers have two HF antenna sockets which can be selected from
the front panel. I have always wondered why they do not support a mode
of tx on Ant-1, rx on Ant-2 to conveniently support the very
configuration you are using.


I'm inclined to agree. I guess I'll have to build a switching box.
Shades of olde time separate transmit/receive rigs!
