Just a thought bouncing round in my head.. using 2 top loaded antennas with a T mount. Is it possible? How well would it work? Would it outperform a single mirror mount topload antenna? Just trying to learn a little bit. I have read n seen the videos of how to make several different styles n how they radiate. I also have the calculator to figure the length needed. Thank you for any & all input.

I have had to install a 'dipole configured' antenna on some of the dump trucks that had too much fiberglass in the front just to get the antenna to tune good.
It would be easy enough to fabricate if you don't want to buy the mount that is made for that purpose.
Give it a try and decide for yourself.

    Hello gentlemen and Ladies. I have the dreaded RCI-2990 receive issue where my radio gets distorted when people get close to my location. I found the C90 Capacitor, but I can not for the life of me find the C89 capacitor. Can or does anyone have a picture of the exact location of C89 ? Thank you in advance, Wes
