Wow, Thanx. Need a bit of Clarification

StephanieS thank-you for your prompt and thorough reply.
Just a couple of questions. Your recommendation for the orientation of the VHF antenna is 86º for the CBS et.al. translator, while my favorite FM station translator is at 143º according to my FM profile. (My understanding is that FM is in the mid-VHF range) Will I be able to tweak the orientation of the antenna to get good reception from both or do I need to throw some more money at this. Secondly, you recommend a 4' spread between the 2 antenna. With a 7 ft mast, this puts the lower antenna pretty close to the roof. Why the spread and can I cheat it somewhat, or do I need to lower the roof? Does it matter which antenna is on top?

Cheers and Happy Holidays: SD
