Mal,
I "rx" very successful just with my FT-857 and a Miniwhip on 500KHz. The
300Hz filter and DSP helps a lot.
I compared my reception with an EKD-300 and copied everything as well
with the FT-857. See some of my receptions on
http://dd7pc.qsl.nu/dd7pc_137khz.htm
On 137KHz i need an additional Preamp (i use one from G0MRF).
