Receiving antennas
When I lived in the city of Brugge my noise level on 40m and 80m not even mentioning 160m was very high.
So looking at my station and first I did was the info you can find on the page of noise level attack.
Well most was done when I build the shack but still some small could be done.
After that it was a little better my noise level unfortunately not enough for me.
The location where I lived in that time was a normal city lot with lots of neighbors.
The only solution was some sort of directional receiving system.

Old Shack in the city of Brugge.
