I have a Yaesu FT-847 which is dedicated for satellite work, so I don't have any HF antennas connected to it.
I'd like to know from those on the group who are (were) using AO-7 Mode A (10 meter receive), what type of antenna you are using?
I really don't want to get a directional antenna for several reasons. Also, is it possible to receive Mode A without the use of an external preamp?
