-> Well, GMRS is on 450 MHz, the wavelength of which is .67 meters or ba
-> a couple of feet.  The 10-15 ft distance means you're rather safe.
Great.  I noticed a improvement though, after I moved the discone from
it's 4'-away position to it's, now, 15'-away positison.
-> Wavelength with respect to the antenna under analysis.  The GMRS ante
-> MHz is not likely to be affected by the discone.  However, since the
-> can receive down to 25 MHz, the wavelength of which is 12 meters or
-> about 40-ft, then the GMRS antenna can affect the discone at the
-> lower end of its bandwidth.  The vertical separation coupled with
-> the extreme frequency separation makes any effects very unlikely to
-> be noticed.
Ahhh, ok.
Thanks for the help Bill.  Muc appreciated.
