I like to make my own diplexer/triplexer boxes. In this case, only a
diplexer is needed. The Radio Shack discone antenna will (allegedly)
work from 30-1300MHz.

Below 30MHz is the real problem. Also, none of the commercial
diplexers I could find had a 30MHz cutoff frequency. Looks like I get
to build something.


I have one and have never bothered to check it because I've never
actually used it. It's one of my backup backup antennas.

Time to test it.
