In the 1990s, I had a 660-ft Beverage at previous QTH in northern 
Delaware that went from 90 feet elevation to 30 feet elevation.This was 
a 10-foot-high single wire with feedlines and relays to each end to make 
it reversible, NW/SE. It was higher at the NW end. It worked great -- 
heard KL7s and lots of JAs in the NW direction -- and exhibited good f/b 
when switched to opposite direction. Much of its length also was over a 
chain link fence about 4 to 6 feet high.
