built your 10:1 balum about 2 months ago. use it
on a long wire, about 110 ft from the house/ down
the middle of the back yard. works great. now for
the question! picked up a dx-ultra/alpha delta at
the last hamfest. new in the bag for $50. not bad.
this ant is made to run as an inverted V. coax off
the center. if i hang the center about 10 ft above
my roof off a tripod, and run the 2 legs to the left
and right side of my back yard/ the long wire will
be about 10 ft below the center and the legs will
go off to the sides about 35 degrees. (whew!) the
question is will the long wire have any affect on
the inverted V? i know for transmit this would be
bad/ how bout only receive? hope i explained this
so you can understand what i mean...
thanks Steve...
