Working on a new kenworth. The driver put new wilson 2000 antennas on it. Two of them as its co-phazed coax. I put my antenna anylizer on the feed point for both antennas. Where the radio plugs in.
Im getting a swr of 1.1 to 1.2 across the band. Great. I then thought id check the antennas with a single 50 ohm coax and they are reading 1.6 with a impedance of 122 each side give or take.
Why would this be?
I plan on going with the first adjustment as it reads great from the feed point but why so much differance? Sould an antenna adjusted to phazed use be so much different from single use?
Anyone?
Learning factor for me and maybe a few others folks on this site as well.
Thanks.
