Gievn how well your other EWE's work (aided by superb grounding) I think
this is your best bet for TA's. 73 KAZ

Hi
KAZ,
Thanks! I think the NE EWE will work out well too. The only problem I
see, is the NE downlead for the new EWE runs quite close to the
Horizontal piece on the SW EWE. Like a couple or three feet apart, it
looks like. I hope there is no interreaction with the two being so
close? But the

Thanks too. I think this should solve my problem with the lack of a lobe
to NE. At least I hope so. I have a few other ideas, if this EWE works.
I may try to raise the NE end of it higher in the tree and see what that
does to the pattern. I have had some luck with EWEs with the legs

Chris,
I would expert no problem ether as it is only the horizontal wire and
not anythjing larger, plus the SE element of the NW EWE is right near
the SW element element of the SW EWE, within a couple of feet on each
side of the tree trunk.

Sorry to say I don't know what an interconnector is Sounds like a barrel
(it goes between two things) but obviously that's not right given what you
wrote.

Sorry I did not explain better. What I should have said, the center
conductor pulled away from the barrel connecting the two pices of RG6
together. I don't think the center conductor was long enough anyway. But
it is fixed now. Works great.
