My RG6 Beverage feedlines are 1300 to 1800 feet long... Most of the Beverage 
transformers are DX Engineering units...  The Beverages are all 760 footers... 
I do not use preamps and have to back off the the receiver gain to keep from 
blasting my ears (Orion II) ... And yes, GM3POI and other regulars over in 
Europe can be copied almost every evening from Michigan...
