Troy,
At a previous QTH in Delaware I ran a 660-ft Beverage at about 10 feet high, over cyclone fence that was 4ft high for most of the length of the Beverage. This was switchable as a single-wire Beverage either NW or SE and worked find. I heard and worked lots of DX, including JAs.
My European Beverage at that QTH had a 6-ft high cyclone fence just a few feet away from it for about two-thirds of its length, and this wire too heard lots of DX.
Both exhibited typical Beverage f/b.
