Well, until this spring, my friend had a 20 foot 1 3/4" black pipe, set up so 12 foot stuck out the top of a 50 foot tower. He had a Mosley TA-33 1 foot above the tower top. 10 foot above that, he had a Cushcraft 13B2 and the last foot he mounted an Imax 2000. Had to make adapters so the Imax and cushcraft fit the large diameter pipe, he worked for Caterpillar so it was a breeze for him He ran that for a year with no difficulties and made contacts with all three antennas with great results.

One day we set up a 70 foot tower to the north end of his house, moved the Imax to the 70 foot tower, and installed a Diamond X510 2 meter / 70 centimeter vertical where the Imax was.

Again, always made great contacts.

I sent pictures of this set up to Moleculo, I do not have the pictures any longer, Mole may? Look for the pictures of Ron's antenna farm Mole.
