Spacing of Circular Polarized antenna?
I am building 2 Circular polarized satellite antennas.They are omni Moxons, a variation on Turnstiles.I by accident used the wrong length pipe for the spacing.Ended up putting on the shorter pipes that were to supposed to attach to the antennas.Is about 4 feet spacing OK?Or should I get some couplers and extend them? My original plan was 5-6bfeet spacing.I was more concerned with interference, I think the physical spacing of the antennas will fit. Thanks Rich
Rich, Just curious if you chose RH or LH polarization. TNX, Bob K8BL
