Snip

Your original post contained the reply below that you re-posted without
comment, which I can only assume means that you are in agreement with it.

Your posts are kind of long and rambling so maybe I'm mistaken.

C.E.,

I didn't mean to imply that an HF antenna would normally
transmit farther than it can receive, only that a random
wire can sometimes outperform it on the receive-end.

This can happen even when listening on the transmitting
antenna's resonant frequency.

Under average circumstances, a dipole at proper elevation
and orientation will outperform a random wire (tx or rx).
