TopBand: 4 Square vs Beverage

[Jay E Ostrem]

Hey fellas,

Can anyone give me a comparison between their 4 square arrays or parasitic
arrays and a beverage for receive?  In his latest book John alludes to
directive antennas (yagis and arrays) negating the need for beverages.  I
was curious about your experiences.

Please describe your array, and your beverage system (heigth, length,
favored direction)

I'll summarize and repost responses.
