I have read everything from 39 to 72 inches stack distance for 2 of these antennas...What is the correct distance ? |

The stacking distance also depends on the height above ground. Typically you want to eliminate the useless lobe that goes straight up. In a mobile situation you have a height limit. Msquared suggests 82 and 132 inches as the heights of each antenna. https://www.m2inc.com/content/PDF%20MANUALS/HO-LOOPS/2MHOLOOPMAN03-W.pdf Zak W1VT ARRL Senior Lab Engineer |
