For most serious 160M operators, that is NOT a given. Either we find a 
rig that has a separate input for an RX antenna, or we modify the rig to 
add one.  N6TR published a nice applications note quite a few years ago 
showing how to do this for a popular rig at the time, a TS850.  I did 
that mod to two TS850s that I owned. It took about an hour. Google to 
find it.
