Oddly, on southern Vancouver Island, pretty much the strongest station during live listening was TAB on 1539...horse racing of course. Fair number of strong carriers spread over the band, but few seemed to deliver audiodetails later. best wishes, Nick At 14:36 14-10-15, Dennis wrote:

[IRCA] Phasing Null Depth and Antenna Distance

Is there any research/data on how null depth from phasing two antennas varies based on the distance (in wavelengths) between the two antennas? I'm asking because I've got a limited city lot and am also trying to avoid local noise sources. And I'm also curious as to what the answer is. I've

Mark Connelly probably has more information on this topic, Aaron, but what sort of phasing device were you thinking of using, were you thinking of phasing dissimilar (e.g. whip vs. loop) or similar antennas, and were you looking to set up a system where the null is roughly the same over a

Most of my anecdotal observations conclude that two reasonably good directional antennas - Like a FLAG (or KAZ or CONTI) when coupled to a MISEK / LANKFORD phaser can get null depths over 50db -- and I will stress that with an example: I have a W/NW flag on ONE i/p of my PHASER and a ALA100 9
