... Hello Carly: No you use the 75 ohm coax from the Tee to the antennas. You can use odd mulitibles of (RG11 Coax) 1/4 wavelengths, from the Tee to the antennas. But thew lead in coax can be 50 ohm coax. I suggest the flexable LMR400. The ARRL Antenna Book has all this neat o stuff in it. Here are a few neat yagi sites. http://home.planet.nl/~poelm348/STAC...0ANTENNAS.html http://www.grantronics.com.au/docs/StkYagis.pdf http://members.fortunecity.com/xe1bef/yagi-antennas.htm Jay in the Mojave I used to have a link on stacking moonrakers, but I lost it in a hard drive crash. It seems that you also have to have them a certain distance apart to be effective. Also a 10 degree upward tilt will result in better DX if I remember correctly. |

Hello Dr. Death:
I have that info if anyone needs it. It is the factory info from Avanti or Antennas Specialists. I remember that I would space the Moonraker 4 beam antennas more than what the factory spec's say. But it's quit a project to have that muck spacing. Using a Moonraker 4 or 6, you will need a good tower and rotator. A TV Push-up mast, and a light weight TV type rotator will not do.

Captain Boss used to tell me about the 10 degree thing. He did lots of
"little things" like that. "Dr.Death" wrote in message ... "Jay in the Mojave" wrote in message ... Hello Carly: No you use the 75 ohm coax from the Tee to the antennas.
