[UK-CONTEST] Dedicated RX Antenna, Isolation?

[Clive GM3POI]

Deni, One test you can do is to fire up the Tx side including any amplifier 
then measure the RF coming back up the beverage feeder into a dummy load. If 
your beverage runs near your TX antenna then expect RF back up that feeder, 
also it can be used to judge if the beverage is likely to pick up noise from 
the TX antenna. See how you get on with that first as there are things you 
can do if both things happen. 73 Clive GM3POI
