Al,

When transmitting, the current node does the 'work,' so I'd say it also does 
the main receiving job. But the difference in your situation might be small.

Good luck & 73,

Subject: [Elecraft] [OT] Question about power lines

One leg of a horizontal antenna has to, unfortunately, run parallel to the 
power lines at the back of a city lot. Will there be more pickup of 
electrical noise if that leg has a current maximum, or a current minimum on 
it, along the portion of the antenna closest to the power lines?

You can e-mail me privately to keep traffic down.

Thanks,


Al
