I put together a nice 3 el W2PV 12 meter beam beam and mounting it 6 feet
below my KT34XA was a disaster.  12 meter beam moved to 23 mhz and both 10
and 15 on KLM went bonkers.  High SWR and 10 meters lost F/B.

Suggest at least 10 to 12 feet maybe more.  Also the 34XA works well on 17
meters so that might even be more of a problem.
