[TowerTalk] Opposing boom to mast plates?

[Richard Thorne]

Steve,

I have a F12 C31 a few inches above the tower and a F12 230/240 6' above 
it.  The 230/240 is mounted on the opposite side of the mast.

Mark Hooper (N5WEB), the owner of F12 at the time I purchased the 
antennas, made that suggestion.  If I recall my conversation with Mark 
correctly, he passed this idea/suggestion on from K7NV.
