Hi Towertalkians,

I sure do appreciate you guys as you provide a wealth of helpful tower and 
antenna information.

I'd appreciate your thoughts on how to place multiple towers at a Florida QTH 
for best HF performance, least pattern distortion, etc.

Such as, if I build 3 towers with monoband stacks on each tower: a tower with 
10m stack, another with 15m stack, another with 20m stack.

In Florida we seldom beam due South.  Therefore, would the best arrangement 
be to place the towers in a direct line from South to North and place the 
lowest freq. 20m antennas on the Southern most tower, 15m antennas in the middle, 
and the highest freq. 10m antennas on the Northern most tower?  When antennas 
were beamed North (worst-case) the lower freq. antennas would "see thru" the 
higher freq. antennas?

Or would there be a better tower placement setup?

Thanks in advance for your thoughts.

Best 73's, Dick- K9OM
