Just a thought bouncing round in my head.. using 2 top loaded antennas with a T mount. Is it possible? How well would it work? Would it outperform a single mirror mount topload antenna? Just trying to learn a little bit. I have read n seen the videos of how to make several different styles n how they radiate. I also have the calculator to figure the length needed. Thank you for any & all input.

I have had to install a 'dipole configured' antenna on some of the dump trucks that had too much fiberglass in the front just to get the antenna to tune good.
It would be easy enough to fabricate if you don't want to buy the mount that is made for that purpose.
Give it a try and decide for yourself.
