[TowerTalk] Yagi Separation on a Mast

[Gary.Stone@med.va.gov]

Hi,

My experience is with my current set-up:  OptiBeam OB17-4 (3 ele on 40, 4 on
20, 4 on 15 and 6 on 10) and 12 feet above that is the Force 12 WARC-7 with
3 ele on 12, 2 on 30 and 2 on 17.  I 'think' I have a little interaction
with some bands but nothing really of concern.  The only band I am not sure
about is 10 meters on the Optibeam and 12 meters on the F12.  They both seem
to be degraded a little on SWR but I have not noticed anything of
significance.

Subject: [TowerTalk] Yagi Separation on a Mast

Hello Fellow TowerTalkians,

I plan to locate my 20 meter Steppir, 4-element yagi and Force 12 Magnum
240N, 2-element, 40 meter yagi on the same mast.

I would like to ask those with similar setups, what your experience is with
respect to how much separation is needed between the two antennas.

I am told I should be able to orient both antenna's booms in parallel
without interference.  Again, what is your experience?

Thanks for everyone's responses.
