I have a 140' tower with several beams on it and I want to get back on
160m. I want to put up a 1/4 WL sloper, but my experience has been that it
will only barely cover 1/2 the band. I have measured out two slopers, one
133' long and the other 127' long. Can I feed both together with the same
feedline? (Adjusting the longer one first.)
Yes, and both might need adjustment.. There's something in the Antenna
Book about this kind of antenna. You also need to space the two wires
apart a bit.
Or, should I just "bite the
bullet" and make two slopers to the antenna switch? I only have 4 ports on
the switch so I want to only use one for this if its not going to be a
compromise.
Thanks!
