[NLRS] antenna spacing

Tue, 1 Jul 2003 13:20:49 -0500

Hi Jim,
There are a couple of references on the web you should look at !

<http://www.ifwtech.co.uk/g3sek/stacking/stacking2.htm>  This talks
specifically about what you're trying to do... and in my opinion should be
read and understood by anyone who plans on putting up VHF/UHF yagi antennas
!

<http://www.ifwtech.co.uk/g3sek/stacking/stacking2.htm>  Talks about
stacking yagis for increased gain, pattern, etc.

As Ian, G3SEK, points out (1st ref. above), a lot of the "old knowledge" is
not good, and should not be relied on.

Good luck !
