Groundwave BC signals arrive at 0 degrees; you want to adjust FB at incoming

What reference you should use depends on your QTH and the first wave of
incoming (Europe?) QRM


I would like to respectfully disagree, at least for my QTH.  What I
find is that my noise is dominated by local ground wave sources.
I want a null at the horizon=ground wave.  I don't see background
noise vary much between day and night.  Especially on vertically
polarized antennas.
