I have 3 dipoles on a single push-up pole about 4 or 5 feet apart on the pole - I use a 4-way antenna switch to switch from one antenna to the other. I'm curious if I should disconnect the dipoles i'

Why use a switch at all? Tie all three antennas together at the coax. Run them parallel. The RF knows where to go. I am using 40, 30 and 20m parallel dipoles with a common coax feed. Bill == I'm curi

- the main reason I ask is the antenna switch I have connects the center and shield to ground when they are not selected on the switch, in essence creating ground radials fairly close to the active d

Right! This is a VERY good technique. I've built several dipoles like this and am building more. They work really well. Jim K9YC _______________________________________________ TenTec mailing list Te

Jason, Assuming that the dipoles are each for separate bands, I'd suggest just tying the coax together. RF will always flow down the path of least resistance (or reactance) so only the antenna that i

I experimented with this once (once is the operative word, about 15 years ago) ) but didn't have the best success with it because the SWR was high. Weather was bad and I was pressed for time so I did

You can have a lot of interaction between parallel dipoles. Some antenna current will flow the unused antennas no matter how you try to avoid it. Depending on which bands you try to parallel, the res

The title of this thread threw me at first. But now I see it for what it is, and that is using multiple dipoles with one feedline. I've never had any luck with putting them in parallel, but if I woul

Running multiple dipoles from a single feed line is pretty well documented in most antenna handbooks. You dont need and dont want 4 separate feed lines going to the array. No matter what your doing w
