C.E.,

I didn't mean to imply that an HF antenna would normally
transmit farther than it can receive, only that a random
wire can sometimes outperform it on the receive-end.

This can happen even when listening on the transmitting
antenna's resonant frequency.

Highly unlikely on receive for the same reason as on transmit.
