important to note that almost EVERY properly installed antenna will work adequately as a
broadband receive antenna; even single band Yagi antennas work quite well across the
amateur bands. Start by experimenting with your existing antennas to see how well they
work!
For added performance across a wider frequency range, consider adding a broadband
receive antenna such as a beverage, long wire, log-periodic, traditional or shielded loop,
or multi-band dipole, yagi, or vertical. Using the antenna matrix, you can receive over a
wide range, and then use your tuned narrowband antennas for transmitting. Consult the
SmartSDR Software User’s Guide
for antenna configuration.
