Stationmaster over Moxon
As the title suggests, I want to mount a half wave MK1 Stationmaster on the same tower with my Moxon. What material do I use to mount the stationmaster, that will not affect the SWR of either antenna. I think the SM should be at least 9ft (quarter wave length) above the Mox, Is that right? What have you guys used? What is best? I was thinking some kind of poly pipe. Am I overthinking it? Can i just use aluminum without causing problems?

Re: Stationmaster over Moxon
What band is the Moxon tuned to ?? Is it mounted vertically or horizontally?
A couple of vertical antennas side by side are going to interact, but if you’re running it horizontal, than you should be OK with the end fed half wave on top.
Best get a NanoVNA. I can not recommend them highly enough. It will tell you what the antenna is doing as far as resonance and matching goes.
