Yes, nearly identical. There's just one thing: The T antenna in the garden is resonated and matched to 50 Ohm. However i forgot to connect a 50 Ohm terminating resistor to the RX input. Probably the matched antenna does not act as a perfect bandpass for all frequecies and maybe there's a standing wave on the 20m long coax cable, resulting in a high input voltage in the HF or lower VHF range? The band noise was about 15...17 dB above the RX noise so there is some space. I will repeat the test and will use a 50 Ohm terminating resistor. I don't expect much difference but anyway :-) > And do they have the same receiving band width?

And do they have the same receiving band width?
Yes they do.
