Hi,

Various construction projects have required removal of all of my 880' beverages.  The new beverage footprint needs to shrink into a smaller area.  Here is what I am considering at the moment:

3- 550' two-wire switchable-direction beverages made from 450 ohm open feedline.  Using reflection transformers as described in ON4UN's handbook.  Further on the NE/SW beverage add a staggered beverage for the NE direction at least.

Any comments on how this arrangement will perform??


Thanks,
