You'll get the best isolation if one antenna is horizontally polarized

Do I remember correctly that there was terrain blockage also -- the
lower antenna was down a mountain slope? And that you did this on
10 & 20, as well as 15?

In the early 70's K7JA and myself W5QQQ operated at W7RM, we
started on 15 ssb working JA's and the Caribbean, Chip was running
well over 200 Q's per hour and I was S & P .
At this particular time there was no restriction on how many
signals could be on the band at the same time.
We were both running Collins S-Line and KW's.
The antennas had aprox 250 foot of vertical separation . The lower
antenna was about 70 ft above saltwater beaming to Asia and antenna
# 2 was at 170 foot beaming east.
We were able to, with ease operate within 15Khz and not even know
the other station was on the band. We had no filters .

Subject: [CQ-Contest] two radios on same band (10m contest)
I would like to get some advice on running two radios on the
*same* band, specifically for 10 meters.There’s plenty of good
information here and on the web regarding minimizing interference
when running multiple radios on different bands, but not much info
at all on the same band.
The plan is to enter the ARRL10m contest, multi-op, mixed SSB/CW,
low-power (<150 watt) category and use a run radio and a multiplier
radio (only one transmitter at a time). To help minimize
interference, one radio would be on CW portion (say below 28.050)
and the other on SSB (above 28.400) and thus maintain at least a
350-400kHz frequency separation. Also the antennas for each radio
will be different polarizations. But given space limitations at the
QTH, the antennas can only be separated by 100’. Are commercial
bandpass filters or homebrew designs available for in-band use?
I’m guessing two
radios have been successfully used for the 10m contest. Any ideas
or tips on the setup for minimizing inter-station interference
would be greatly appreciated.
