Typical voltage at Rx antenna input

[AmpLogic]

Can someone give me an idea of what voltage would typically be present when measured with an RF probe at the antenna input of a receiver connected to a proper 1/2 wave 40 meter dipole, located 1/2 wave above the ground? I'm doing some rf mixer stuff for a receiver in LT Spice, and I need some real world values to plug into the simulator. Unfortunately, I don't have a dipole set up right now, or I would just measure it myself.

Thanks

I've measured levels ranging from about -40dBm to -10dBm average on similar antennas which translates to about 2mv on the low end to about .7v on the high end into 50ohms, which is a very important part of the measurement. Into a high impedance load or open circuit you can easily see a couple of volts, especially if you have AM broadcast stations nearby.

That's what I needed to know.

Thanks
