Topband: beverage / proximity to wire fence

Hi All

I have the opportunity to run a Beverage antenna along a fence line. It 
will be my first attempt at this type of antenna.

The fence line is a mature hawthorn hedge which along with odd wooden 
posts will provide much of the support for the antenna.

My concern is that over the length of the fence, particularly 100 feet 
at the feed end the hedge there is a wire and barbed wire for stock 
control. These wires are about 36" to 48" tall.

My wire would be close to these fence wires for parts of the run.

What detrimental effect am I likely to see?


TIA

Regards Paul
