However, my questions (finally) are these:
If I have a great Rx
only antenna won't I be able to hear many more
stations that I probably won't be able to work?
Maybe not many more, but certainly more if your Tx
antenna is lacking. That would be the case no matter
your power level.
Okay, so
Bill,
Often low efficiency antennas make great low noise receiving antennas -
example is a multiturn loop which can be quite directional, but transmit
efficincy would be almost 'zip'. Another example is traveling wave antennas
such as the Beverage - which also are directional, but the efficiency

Would you (or anyone) please elaborate on the use of an Rx antenna?
The fundamental problem on the low bands is the high noise level. A
good transmitting antenna can often have S6-9 noise, or worse. It's
hard to hear weak signals with
Bill and others,
The explanations by Don Ron were as always right on and very helpful.
I already knew the answers but enjoyed reading the replies anyway. I
still have questions, though, too, so please continue to read on (we get
there eventually).
I would like to point out a couple of
