My antenna farms consists of 22 acres in hilly (some say mountainous) terrain.
It adjoins BLM (government) land, so I could 'borrow' considerably more land
in some directions.

I would like to have all of the advantages of using Beverage antennas. Does
anyone have any experience or advice on Beverages that go up and down hills,
perhaps several times over their length?

All of the diagrams that I have seen for Beverages (and radials) seem to
assume that the user is on totally flat ground with no obstructions.
