[Antennas] Stacking 2m Antennas

Tue Apr 30 18:05:46 EDT 2019

Hi All -
Looking for info on vertically stacking horizontally polarized 2m antennas.
The research I've done indicates that the formula
57 / -3dB beam with (H/V) = stacking distance in wavelengths
Is a good starting point. The relevant BW for my antenna, a Cushcraft
A14810-S, shows an E of 40 and H of 46. I presume the E BW is what I need,
correct? If so, that would put the stacking distance of 1.43 wavelengths.
I'm not finding much on the phasing. What would need done there?
Thanks!
