Hello,
I have a fairly large attic (15' x 25' = 375 sq') and wish to place a HF (15, 12, 10M) and a VHF (6, 2M) station. Rigs are IC7300 and IC705 with KPA100 PA. Antennas are HF dipole (with choke balun), 6M dipole (also with choke balun), and 4-el 2M yagi). Hight of space is 5' at walls and 9' at apex. Operating goals are mostly QRP and some ~50W max operation. Coax is hardline (flex) for 2M and LMR400 for 6M and HF. Power supplies are Astron Linears. One computer will be in use for logging and digital modes.
Question 1: is it better to maximize the distance between the radio/computer and the antennas; or don't worry about if the radio is only ~8 feet from the antennas?
Question 2: how important is it to place ferrites on the power supply a-c cords (for the computer as well as the power supplies)?
Question 3: is there anything else that is important that I should be aware of that you would recommend?
