Hi Mike,

 

I did typically run one of the feedlines on the ground beneath some or all
of the Beverage length. Didn't use any chokes, seemed to work fine in both
directions with good f/b.

Hi Jon,

As long as the feedline doesn't run parallel with the Beverage and directly
underneath it. :-)

 

Maybe if it was buried deep enough it would be fine, if there was no other
place to run it. Or maybe with enough common-mode chokes.

 

73, Mike

An alternative to Bill's "stacked" wires is to use a single wire, with
feedlines to both ends ...
