I believe the advantage you are seeing with a low beverage is the reduction of pick-up from the feeds. When you think about it, the 8 foot vertical at each end of the higher beverage is 1/4 wave on 1

Another thing that I liked was an even larger front to back on higher bands. By the time I reached 10 meters I was seeing about 40db on an stock inaccurate S-meter. (No down lead from the Beverage to

This may all be true, but my measurements show that the signals off the back and sides of my beverages are dominated by pick-up in the feed wire. If I am listening to signal off the side, and cut the

Sounds logical to me, but that would invalidate any advantage of using sloping vs. vertical terminations. I think Tom W8JI noted earlier that there is actually no advantage at all, and I was just cur

Milt and All, We have two issues here to solve. 1.) Quantifying the problem. We have to do that and we can do that with a reliable valid measurement. We certainly can't guess, and I don't want to dep
