I have two selectable low-gain noise sense antennas feeding my MFJ-1026.
Each are 10M dipoles, but could be any length, one vertical/one
horizontal, to match the polarization of whatever noise
source is causing the interference problems...and yes, my local noise
is polarized differently
depending the source...I find that being able to select either gives
me a better null, and often
results in going from S9+ to S2-3...If you only have room or patience
for one, then test both
orientations before choosing...also, a simple 102" or shorter Marine/
CB whip antenna with a
minimal ground plane = wires or steel plate will do in a
pinch...that's what I started with, but found
the dipoles to be a bit better.
