my advice Mike, put up every tower and antenna you are ever going to want to put up now while you still can. Excellent advice. My 200 footers have been up about 6 or 7 years. All hassles from the cou

The 10 foot separation WILL have interaction on all three bands, more on 20 than 10. If you are using these antennas for contesting to pick up odd mults, it is not a big deal. I used to have a bunch
