I am now making an antenna to put in the window which will be made of four folded dipole elements. Being that it is in the window I will have to stack them on top of each other. Is there a certain amount of space to have between the different elements? The window is five feet tall and wide enough for the elements to fit. All the elements are 2' 4-13/16'' for real channel 10, the only channel I have trouble catching.
How do I wire it? The only wiring I have ever seen was for a UHF antenna that had 4 bowties. The balun tied in at the middle, and the wiring started from the top bowtie, crossed over to get to the 2nd bowtie, then went straight down to the 3rd bowtie, then crossed over to get to the last bowtie. Assuming that was correct for UHF, would that be the same for four VHF elements?
