Getting ready to put up a 52' crank-up tower and I'm wondering what kind of
spacing I should use for the antennas. The plan is to have a F12 C-3, a 6m
(possibly a F12 EF-606) and a Cushcraft A27010S at the top.
I'm thinking about a half wavelength spacing; ie: about 9 feet between the
C-3 and the 6m and about 3 feet between the 6m and the 2m/70cm. This means
I'd have around a 15 foot mast (or a little more). Am I even in the right
ball park?? I trying to keep the interaction to a minimum and keep the
mast as short a practical.
Thanks. . .
