After reading the following paragraph, I'm wondering if my TV
antenna is affecting my Antron 99 either positively or negatively...

11. If you mount two or more antennas close to each other, you will
alter the transmission patterns of each one. The affect may be either
positive or negative. We recommend that a minimum of 12" exist between
your CB antenna and other types of antennas.

Both are clamped directly to the same pipe/mast. The TV
antenna is clamped 12" below the bottom of the Antron, and the highest
point of the antenna is about 6" below the Antron.


Because the 2 antennas are of opposite polarity- they will be
essentially
invisible to each other- typical isolation runs in the 20-30dB range-
making
interaction unnoticeable.

You mean vertical versus horizontal polarization?

Or +45 and -45. The point is they must be orthogonal.
