Thanks to everyone who has replied to me, guess I'll never know how good it would have worked with 3Y0Z cancelled,

Put a 600 ohm resistor or something close across the secondary leads where
the beverage would be connected and hook up an analyzer to the primary
wires and see what you read on your analyzer.  Check it from about 1.5 to 5
mhz and you should see a good SWR over that range and more.
