Good afternoon to ALL!
I am getting ready to put up a beverage for top band. I have decided that I want to put up a two wire system using window line because of the ease of assembly. I am not sure if I will use it in the null steering mode or just switch from front to back. I will decide that after I get it up. After reading the original W1CWR handbook, a book written by K3OQF and several articles by Beverage himself (as well as other references to include much written by W3LPL and W8JI) and tempering it with my site requirements I have pretty much decided to put it up 7-8 ft in the air. BUT... I have several questions. 1. Is there an optimum height above the ground? 2, Can I get away with not sloping the ends toward the ground? (the deer are heavy around here) 3. I have 491 ft of window line should I just put that up or should I order another 100ft and splice it together? 4. What other suggestions do the readers have? Thanks Jim WAMEJ _______________________________________________ UR RST IS ... ... ..9 QSB QSB - hw? BK
