Tom,
How close is "fairly close"? Are we talking twin lead close? Commercial 450 ohm
ladder line close? Is 6 inches to far?
At what point does the ratio of surge impedance to ground resistance cause the
system to become unworkable? I really don't have a feel for this at all, can
you give me some clues?
Frozen dirt is new to me also. Winter antenna work in AZ meant shorts, t-shirt,
and sun blocker. Now I need Carharts, and electric socks and gloves. No more
soldered connections, you can't solder in 40 MPH winds at blow freezing
temperatures. I have learned to use wire nuts for most connections and can put
them on without taking off the gloves!
Thanks,
Larry - W7IUV

If they are good enough for a single wire antenna, they are
good enough for a reversible system if wire spacing is kept
fairly close.
