I use my MFJ 1026 with antennas at 90 degrees to each other. One longwire
pointed south the other pointed west. I can get god phasing that way. Not
sure about your antennas

Friends:

I would be grateful if there are any MFJ-1026 Noise Canceller owners
out there using dual antennas, for some insights on how best to orient
them. I have two "Eavesdroppers" available to me, but before I drop
the $ for the MFJ-1026, I'm trying to determine whether my
space/direction restrictions will afect its utility. I read the
manual, and to be quite honest, I'm not smart enough to understand
what it says, and the folks at MFJ referred me to a site that didn't
answer the question(s). Is it best to set up the antennas:

a) parallel to each other (if so how far apart)?

b) crossing each other as in "+" ?

c) perpendicular to each other I_ ?

d) or some other combination of angles?

Thanks for the feedback,

Ed P.
