Other things that helps reduce crosstalk between stations are 1) a
serious ferrite choke at the feedpoint of each antenna; 2) good quality
coax with very good quality shield, good quality connectors, well
installed. We run good quality RG8/213/11, not for power handling, but
for improved shielding and lower loss. This extends throughout the
station, all the way through switches to the rigs and power amps. And
every connector wrench tight.
