This could account for why my 2 wavelength Beverage never seemed to
perform well on 80 when we lived in Auburn CA. Elephants are very
uncommon in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada.

Best of all the elephants walked around my old Army Signal Corp 40 foot

The longer the wire the more forward the gain. The better the lobes.
I never used a better wire and if I had to do it again I would do it again.

The science is simple. The more wire hanging out the more signal radiating.
