Hi All
I want to make sure my tx antenna doesn't upset my RX antenna they are about
20m apart,
I plan to disconnect the feed line to the TX antenna when in RX but do I leave
it floating or ground it,
I will be using a shut capacitor to match the antenna so it will be grounded
will this cause issues,
Also I will have a 80m wire vertical spaced a few feet from the 160 vertical,
will grounding this when I'm on 160 stop any interaction or do I let it float,
Again if I use shunt capacitance to match this am I opening my self up for
issues,
Thanks
Trevor
