[DX-CHAT] antenna question

I plan on mounting a CushCraft D3W dipole on the mast above my Mosley TA-33JR. What distance should seperate the two antennas to avoid interaction. As of now I have between 2 - 3 feet. I can replace the mast with a longer one if needed. Thanks, Jerry WW0E __

[DX-CHAT] Antenna question

I have a chance - to get a good used Cushcraft D3W rotatable dipole (12, 17, 30 meter) antenna for atop my mast. Does anyone know if it would be possible to jumper this to the coax going to my Mosley TA-33JR assembly, or would I need a seperate coax run? Or - just buy the Mosley add-on dipole.
