Well the initial thought was to have them spaced a wavelenth apart, starting at the top going in the direction most needed then down the line. Would end up about 24 feet all together. Might also be better with 4 three or four element beams that can be fed from the back, keeping all the elements in front of the tower. > Laryn K8TVZ > > > --- In [email protected], "w9mwq" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I have a crazy thought, but I want to get some opinions.
