Has any one solved the problem of omni directional pattern
distortion when side mounting a DB-224 on a tower ?
I've side mounted several DB-224's using the DB 5001 side
mount kit.
The results agreed with the radiation pattern supplied by
Decibel Products, i.e. a distortion of the omni pattern and signal attenuation
off the tower leg that the antenna is mounted on.
Will different mounting distances off the tower leg improve
the omni pattern ?
Can a 224 be mounted on each side of the tower with a phasing
harness or power divider ?
BTW, the tower I'm using has a 42" face.
Any ideas will be appreciated.
