Scrap the dual antenna idea unless you can get then 8 feet 6 inches apart.
One good antenna will perform better. Use a real mounted antenna, not a magnet
mount. Make sure your grounds are good at RF, not just DC. The closer you get
your antenna to the magic 8' 6" mark, the more efficient it is. 102" whip
can't be beat and I like the Firestik KW-7.

Every one of my sideband radios pick up more hiss on LSB/USB then on AM.
ANd if you think SSB has loud static, try FM for some serious shot noise!
