I know DB made a dual band 150/450 folded dipole antenna (bottom half was 
either a DB-222 or the bottom half of a DB-304 and the top half was a DB408 or 
top half of a DB-420), which is no longer available.  Does anyone recall 
whether it was fed with one feed line or two ?  I think it was 2 but, I can't 
recall the dipole configuration (singles on opposite sides going up, or pairs 
at each level).   

I would like to combine a DB-224E (138 -150) with a DB-408 or DB-420 (450-470) 
on a single mast, or split the antennas at the mid point and make 2 antennas 
with the VHF on the bottom and the UHF on the top, and the reverse on the 
second antenna.  Has anyone tried this ?  What were the results ?  The numder 
of feed lines (1 or 2) to the antenna is not an issue at this time.  

The combined antenna would be for a 2 Mtr./440 D-Star application becuase of 
limited tower space available.

Comments appreciated
