If I'm going to run 1 antenna then I can run 2. Tho could I split       them off near the base connection? I guess it should be ok if I'm only       receiving though I expect there will be a little loss.               > I live near major regional airport, and I was going to get mine to pick up        > the tower chatter, since this airport isnt available in ATCnet.              I'm about 30 miles from Dallas Fort Worth International Airport which is,       supposedly, the third busiest airport in the world (passenger traffic). I'm       only picking up flights in about a 40 mile radius right now due to limited       height and no line of sight for the antenna.              I can pick up aircraft comms on my old Radio Shack scanner, espcially coming       into Love Field, which is one of the busiest medium sized hubs in the US. I       expect to pick up a lot of airplane traffic once I get this antenna outside.       --- SBBSecho 3.30-Linux        * Origin: End Of The Line BBS - endofthelinebbs.com (1:124/5016)       SEEN-BY: 10/0 1 18/200 102/401 103/1 705 105/81 106/201 124/0 5016       SEEN-BY: 128/187 129/14 305 153/7715 154/110 214/22 218/0 1 215 601       SEEN-BY: 218/610 700 840 860 880 900 910 226/30 227/114 229/110 111       SEEN-BY: 229/200 206 300 307 312 317 400 426 428 470 664 700 705 266/512       SEEN-BY: 291/111 292/854 301/1 320/219 322/757 342/200 396/45 460/58       SEEN-BY: 633/280 712/848 902/26 5020/400 5075/35       PATH: 124/5016 218/700 229/426           |
