I have been looking though the archives in tower talk for info and haven't found anything as yet about my spacing question. I also emailed Force 12 but haven't received a response yet. I have a Force
Bob: FWIW: I have my D40 about 11 feet above my Skyhawk which is eerily similar in design to the open sleeve feeds of F12 Yagis. The elements of both antennas are parallel with no adverse effects, i.
Gene, Thats good to hear. With no noticeable interaction at 11 foot spacing and elements parallel, I may be able to space closer with the dipole oriented parallel to the C3 boom. Theres hope for me y
?Bob, I have a D40 sitting about 5 feet above my Tennadyne T-6 on a TX-455 tower. The D40 elements are parallel to the T-6 elements and I have not detected any issues with either antenna. The D40 is
Scott, Thats very good to hear. I didn't want to space them any more than necessary. 5 feet would be excellent. Thanks for the info, much appreciated ! Bob K6UJ ______________________________________
The D40 is not resonant on 10, 15 or 20 meters, so the dipole should be ok parallel to the C3. I have a 40-2CD six feet above a KT-34XA, elements parallel, and all is ok. Those antennas have been the
Dave, Good info on testing for interaction Dave ! I will check the F/B before and after as you describe. thanks, Bob K6UJ _______________________________________________ _____________________________
