- I'm planning to put up several beverages on a farm that has cattle grazing all over it. For obvious reasons gradually sloping the beverages to ground level at both ends would require quite a bit of e

- // I used to run a 3-wavelength 8-ft. high beverage for 80m longpath into N. Europe. I found that there was a change in ground conductivity depending on rainfall. To be able to adjust the terminatin

- Hi Fritz, I have a similar problem. There is no need to slope the wire, it does not reduce the vertical pickup off the ends unless the slope extends a very long distance. 10 feet of vertical drop is

- Hi Fritz, K4OAQ On your planned multi-beverage receiving system. For single wire beverages, the capacitor described in ON4UN's book, Fig 7-17, is not necessary. The idea of a gradually sloping bevera

- The vertical part of a working beverage is a minor problem. In my opinion and experience, your 10 Ft of height from ground is instead a much bigger problem since the whole antenna at such heights beg

- Unfortunately that commonly held perception isn't true. The shield becomes a perfectly coupled secondary winding over the center, and has all the current the primary (the center conductor) has. Radi

- One thing I've done both when I was in Colorado and from my present location is to use a single ground and matching transformer at the feedpoint but switch Beverage wires on the output of the transfo

- I've used many times your same system and I can confirm there was no interaction, at least up to a *density* of one Beverage each 40 degrees. 73, Mauri I4JMY
