Now all I need to figure out is how to keep the 10 meter and 11 meter antennas from interacting too bad or place them in such a way that the interaction does something that is usefull... Here's an idea. Use the 11 meter antenna for 10 meter operation by switching in a series capacitor. All you need to do is to neutralize the small amount of inductive reactance on 10m caused by the antenna being a tad too long. The capacitor could be switched in and out by a relay. I get a value of ~330 pf to perform that function. The SWR on 10m will actually be better than it is on 11m. Or you could use the capacitor with the second 102 inch vertical without having to cut it. -- 73, Cecil http://www.w5dxp.com |
