So I want to build a 4 stacked or 8 stacked Halo for 2m SSB

So I want to build a 4 stacked or 8 stacked Halo for 2m SSB... But I can not seem to find much info on the subject. seems like most people stop at a 2 stack, mostly I would guess because of the complications in teh phasing harness above 2 halos...

Any 'light' reading you could recommend?

Well...

You can Look into M2

I Know it takes up little room..
But also is little gain (even in a Stack)

Here is what i would
2 Meter 18 Element SSB Boomer Yagi

consider ..

However if you are trying to avoid a rotor and a large antenna.
Then this would be hard to use...
But look at the spec's..in a single antenna 21 dbi ( not bad at all )

This though is some good reading...
Perhaps what you are looking for..
This site shows stacking 4 (2 above and 2 next to )

Here they talk of stacking 4 70 cm
easy enough to make instead 2 meter

A Halo 4 Stack for 70cm on the Cheap - KR1ST

I was surprised ..
Not a lot of info on those antennas for stacking..

That should give a bit though
