...
I would like to ''do this'' because I lack tower space, at present.. I
have a TV antenna that is on a small tower at about 28' , with a tv
rotor. I also have a 6 meter horz ground plane , (you know the one
that looks like a 'pie slice') I would like to add this horz gd plane
to the tower,,,,,,,,, my question is this,,, would I be better off
putting it on top of the Tv antenna or below?, what would be a 'good
spacing' one way or the other (6 on top or 6 below )
I would like to get some use out of the 6 now, because it will be a
while before I get another tower up. $$$
Thanks in advance. cl 73


Doesn't sound like a good idea. There will be enough coupling between the
antennas that there is a chance you will burn out the front end of the TV.
If the TV has protection diodes on its inputs, that will be a source of TVI
when you transmit.
