I think the spacing is a bit wide try something more on the order of
250-270' ( goes through the middle of the house right ....8^)

My new house has 6 wooded acres in roughly a square. For EU, I was hoping to get a pair of phased 500’ beverages
spaced 350’ apart. To do that, one of the 2 beverages will be 110’ in front of the other due to the
lot-line orientation. Regardless of the phasing I’m modeling, the side and back lobes are not to my liking. Is
the 110’ forward stagger too far? I can get a single 600’ beverage to Eu which has a marginally worse
RDF (0.35 less) than the not-perfect-staggered-pair but is much simpler and takes up less land.
How much RDF increase does it take to be audible?
