While using a beverage antenna or some other type of low noise receive  
antenna, the decrease in signal strength on receive, as compared to your  
transmit 
antenna on receive, really is not the way to determine if the low noise  
antenna is better It is the signal-to-noise ratio between the two, is what  
counts. 
A properly hung & matched beverage, of several wave lengths, will  have a 
better signal-to-noise ratio than any of the low noise receive antennas  that 
are 
compromised, including loop type antennas. Willy  K3VW
