I have the opportunity to put out an 1100 ft beverage in CQWW160.  It will
be on a cliff top 200 ft ASL.  We think the soil is chalk over granite.

What would be the optimum height for the beverage?  Is the 10ft recommended
in ON4UN's book worth the complexity of the supports?  What distance
between supports would 16 AWG hard drawn copper wire require?

Reply direct and I will produce a digest.

73  &  Seasons Greetings
