This thread is fascinating. But in almost all descriptions I read of
the Beverage being close to earth. What if one is able to get the
wire elavated, say at 50 feet, for it's entire length? Does the
impedance change? (Of course, at 160M even 50 feet is "close to
earth.")  Is there any advantage, electrically, to have the wire
low?
