Philco 116X tone control (Solved!)
#7

Guys, that is interesting and unexpected since long wire antennas have greater capture-area and are less shielded (by the chassis, cabinet and other local obstructions) and the loops are directional - which can be used to reduce noise.

Not saying it isn't true, just unexpected. This would also depend on how long and high your "long wire" is.
