Hi Steve,
Never use a common ground rod to feed multiple Beverages. The feed
points for each Beverage should be independent and separated at least
6 to 10 feet from each other.
Two short radials may be adequate as an alternative to -- or in addition
to -- ground rods at each end of a Beverage.
Well DX conditions seem to have been gradually improving across the week,
and were reasonable last night (Friday) . . .
So hope to work lots of you tonight !

We used a chicken wire mat at each end of the Beverages (similar to NC0B's use
of chicken wire on his verticals).
How large were the mats, and how were they laid out: in line with the
Beverages, or perpendicular?
Instead of using a ground rod for each
