PowerFlarm Range Analysis for "WX" - 15M Nats Yreka 2014
You're right, Steve! I was thinking of 1 antenna feeding two receivers.

With two antennas gathering energy from the same surroundings, the effect is primarily an alteration of pattern. The greater concern might be polarization. PowerFlarm is a vertical polarization system. I'm not exactly sure what TW means by "stripe antenna in the canopy (laterally & slightly behind my head)". That doesn't sound vertical polarized; hopefully I'm just not visualizing that correctly. -- Dan Marotta
