## JI claims that max beverage  height should be .05 wavelength. 
That implies 26.86 feet.   492 / 1.832 =  268.55 feet. 
268.55 /  10 =   26.86 feet. 

##  It would be interesting to know  if you could use an existing 
6 ft tall fence line and strap a 8-15 ft tall pvc tube  to each
wooden fence post.   At that height, it would be a bitch to install
the beverage wire.  An orchard ladder might work.
