Hi Bruce,

I have a simple switchable coaxial BOG running NE-SW. I have often
noticed that it is not bothered much by rain. In fact, I would consider
this a valid "selling point" of the BOG. Having said that, even on a
rainy day, the longer 2-wire beverage up about 5' still hears slightly
better (even with the rain static).

73,
Mike N1TA

>>Wonder how many others have observed the same?

All good topband ops know how to put up a beverage at night.
