I have seen two differant dipole arays that had a low swr out of the band but
would not work very well. I am not sure if the phasing is causing the signal
to go way up in the air or just cancle out each other. About like the time I
used the wrong 1/4 wave multiplier to phase two beams. Either antenna would
work well by its self , but when hooked together I could not hardly get a
signal out of my yard.
