Martin, I cannot speak for the suitability of this wire for a Beverage, 
as I have no experience with them, but I do know that WD1-A has a high 
DC resistance and a higher RF resistance.

I also know that ON4UN does not recommend it.  My intention is to use 14 
gage stranded THHN house wire for a BOG;  will advise results when I 
have them.
