Besides common-mode pickup, *also* consider whether your Beverage antenna is pointing at a source of noise.

I am feeding it through a 9:1 transformer with some 50 ohm cable ( RG 59). I am finding that it is noisier than my transmit antenna, contrary to what it should be. The wire stays about 6-8feet above ground. ground rods at each end, etc. Any thoughts on the problem and a cure? _________________ Topband Reflector Archives - http://www.contesting.com/_topband
