"Sherman D." wrote in message ... True, but the major point being that a transmitting antenna is usually a narrow bandwidth antenna...A good transmitting antenna will be good for receiving that frequency of course, but it could be argued that a SWL receiving antenna should have a high bandwidth/gain factor.. Yes, you are right. That said, I got generally good SW reception from a trap dipole I had strung 30' up in some trees. It was made for 20-15-10 meters, but I got decent SW reception from it when used with my IC-718. Too bad I had to move, and it's all packed away in a storage locker now. Jackie |
