<< My antenna setup is now a single tower 60' with TH6DXX and A3WS top of the
mast
about 70' over ground level.
I am considering to replace the TH6DXX with a new antenna as X9 Cush or C4XL.
I had the opportunity to test the C4XL installed in HV4NAC (tnx W6OTC and
K6AW)
and the performances are great except 18 and 24 MHz.
I am looking for suggestion about the possible interference between C4XL and
A3WS
and for someone that are planning (or using) a similar system with 4 band
antenna
at the tower end topped with warc band antenna.
Information about X9 also will be very apricieted. >>
Hi, Luke --
There may be no appreciable advantage to the C-4XL over the TH6. If you
want 18 and 24 mHz capabilities, I would recommend the TH11 which is a better
performer than the TH6. I don't have tested numbers yet but I suspect that
this will be the case.
