4 Aiming for best coverage

The W8VDQ is designed for medium coverage – up to 25m distance x 100deg (120deg in the nearfield).

Height

The W8VDQ should always be mounted so that the bottom/foot is about 1m above near-field listener head- height (or 1m above front balcony listener level when used for a balcony fill) for the differential coverage to work correctly.

Nearfield attenuation

Note that the rear panel attenuation switch may be switched to -3dB if the nearfield audience is particularly close.
