Hi all
Looking to install my end fed antenna and wish to out the feed box on a tv aerial pole which currently holds a to aerial.
My query is will the tv aerial coax which runs down the pole cause interference with the feed box or indeed the tv antenna itself which will be about 4 feet above the feed box?
Thanks
Tim

Re: End fed
Need more info about what this end fed antenna is and what it to be used for.
Also, is the "feed box" using balanced (300 Ohm) feeder, or coax?

Re: End fed
If its a cheap and nasty one using iron powder cores then you probably will cause yourself TV interference yes. Also remember that end feds are high voltage, so be careful to keep the box and cable away from direct contact with anything.
