Subject: C31XR and 402CD Spacing
Author: K9TM <k9tm@buckeye-express.com>

The subject line says 402CD, which is the older Cushcraft 2 el 40. I only
say older as they have the XM240 now.

I had one of these up with a KT34XA for many years. I originally put it at
right angles as people told me it wouldn't work with them in-line (so to
speak). I later turned it to be in-line with about 8-9' seperation and
didn't have any problems. With them at right angles, the beam was never
pointed where it did any good when the tribander was pointed where it was
needed.

My only reason for changing antennas was that I wanted seperate feedlines
for each band and a tornado visted my QTH and forced me to accelerate my
antenna plans.
