This was my experience with a KLM 435-40CX and no preamp into a 
FT-736R.  I had to energize the relay on the antenna in order to hear 
them.  I assume it's RHCP normally, and LHCP when the relay is energized.

I actually had better copy during the SSB portion than the CW, but am 
not sure why that was.
