Bill:

The inherent noise present in the vertical antenna element would likely
render the Beverages useless, IMHO.  I have one two wire beverage that runs
within about 50' of my 160 mtr quarter wave elevated feed (10') vertical,
and it's noticably (maybe 6 db or so)noisier than my other two wire beverage
that's 300 or 400' from the 160 mtr vertical.
