   Loop Yagi (quad). Directors will narrow the pattern width.   
   Reflector will increase the sensitivity. I'd start with   
   directors since at 10 miles and at low freqs(?) sensitivity   
   probably isn't as important as beam width. Get more bang   
   for the buck with narrow vs gain.   
      
   What are you using for the readout of the amplitude   
   of the signal? Some kind of external meter? Analog or digital?   
   Audio?
