Bill, my phased array was similarly about 1.3 to 1, but more like about 5' apart. Results were occasionally very interesting, but in the end, I didn't use it very much (too much happening during TP openings). One down side was that the shorter BoG was not amplified compared to the longer one, so I sensed this made a big difference in decreasing the efficacy. Perhaps I'm wrong on that. I also don't necessarily have much to the rear of the NW BoG once daylight breaks to my east. I suspect, perhaps that a phased N Beverage might be more interesting, especially if it can help with splatter from the rear! 73, Walt
