As long as
you use resonant dipoles, current and voltage will be in phase in its
respective dipole, so the impedance will not change.
This isn't always true. The feedpoint impedances of two resonant
dipoles when phased together are not usually resistive. For instance
using EZNEC:
A 33 ft. dipole at 66 ft. has a feedpoint impedance of 70+j0 ohms
on 7.298 MHz.
Two 33 ft. dipoles at 66 ft. spaced 33 ft. apart and fed 90 degrees
out of phase have the following feedpoint impedances on 7.298 MHz:
109+j34
29-j33
Please describe how you would achieve equal magnitude currents 90
degrees apart into those dipoles given those feedpoint impedances.
