Antenna for Diversity rx

[Adriano Perazio]

Hello Ele´s

Would like to try the diversity rx but thinking about what kind of antenna should be ok for that.
For the main i use Yagis for all bands and Cage Dipole for 80m.
What should be the benefit of a 2nd antenna if i supose that the yagi´s gonna be always better than any wire or vertical or wathever?
I´m asking that cause i have to buy the ATU for that and of course it should worth the investiment.

Tnx in advance.

Since all your antennas are horizontally polarized, I would suggest a
vertical for your diversity antenna.  Since it will be RX only, no need for
a tuner.  A small active whip will work nicely.  I'm using the Clifton
Laboratories active whip.  It is well made, reasonably priced, and takes up
very little space.
