The required separation is dependent on what type of frequencies are being used and how the radios are programmed (Eg. If both antennas on a mast are connected to remote radios, then a minimum of 2-3 feet of vertical separation is typically OK. In this. (a) Except for assignments made pursuant to § 73. 215, FM allotments and assignments must be separated from other allotments and assignments on the same channel (co-channel) and five pairs of adjacent channels by not less than the minimum distances specified in paragraphs (b) and (c) of. Vertical or horizontal separation is needed for masts with multiple antennas. This article provides an easy to use calculator with examples, background information, formulas, applications, and limitations of line of sight. The minimum distance between two electrical transmission towers is determined by several factors, including: 1. Voltage Level: The higher the voltage, the greater the distance required to maintain safety.
