The van der Waals material 4Hb-TaS2 is a superlattice of alternating layers with 1H and 1T coordination structures. The charge density waves (CDW) of each individual layer persist within the bulk of the material, and the superconducting temperature is enhanced compared to the pristine 2H-TaS2. Here, we use scanning tunneling microscopy and quasiparticle interference (QPI) to investigate the interaction between adjacent CDWs, and with the superconducting state. We identify a weakly dispersing band from QPI on the 1T surface and find domains with different orientations of the CDW, which change the observed Moiré patterns at the surface and the energy onset of the weakly dispersing band.
