Lots of good answers I do not select a mask Most of my rcvrs will guess are 10 degrees mask. But that just happens to be were they come in at. My antenna is at 45 foot on a 95 foot tower on the south side. There are 70 foot trees around me. I use 1/2" catv hard line very low loss and free. Hit a 4 way 2.5 Ghz splitter feeding 4 rcvrs. Designing a 8 way splitter with amplifier over the next few weeks using a 31 to 1 2.1 GHz combiner works well at 1.5 Ghz. Cut out 3 1 X 8 sections for now. Total gain after splits will + 6db. port to port isolation will be about 20 db. Will see how it all plays out. Regards Paul WB8TSL
