Well Homer, I have seen both of my Top Ones affected by antennas lying on the ground beneath them as much as 20' feet high. In those cases I saw irregular bandwidth curves, but I could not tell anything by operations. I think that is the nature of these antennas with a large hoop at a voltage node.

I'm not sure what kind of affect I should see when antennas are mounted too close together however. In such situations I've never noticed any thing like the irregular BW curves noted above.

Maybe MrS, with all of his experience, or anybody else...can tell us what really happens when I have my antennas about 36' feet apart, does it help, hurt, affect one and not the other, or have little to no affect to regular operations.
