[Elecraft] diversity receive what bands

[Fred Smith]

Your correct I have receive only antennas that I use on that port for
receive only antenna. Diversity I use a vertical with my yagi to even out a
signal that comes and goes works great.

Jim,
I always thought of Beverage as directional antenna that favors low angles. 
Is it not so?
Regarding diversity, I always use two antennas (usually beaming West and
East) practically on all the bands. This helps not only to fight multy path
propagation but allows listening to weak signals from the east on sub RX
without AGC being offset by strong signals from the west. This is invaluable
capability for those, working pileup in contests.
