I am planning on building a six meter dipole out of aluminum tubing. One thing I haven't found out is the spacing between the two halves of the dipole. Does it matter? |

Not really. You do want to separate them far enough apart so that they don't short together in the wind. Zack Lau W1VT ARRL Senior Lab Engineer |

Thanks Zack. I figured if it was very critical I would have read it somewhere. |
