I'v been using two wires Beverage /switched in 2 directions/ above such a fence 
since 10 years.
It goes about 1,8 m above the fence which is about 1,6 m high on a lenght 140m 
,about 40m rest 
of Beverage is just 2m above the ground without a fence. Its working quite well
and ususally I have about 5 S units swiching between directions. Probably it 
would work better
without a fence ..but it works anyway and helps a lot.
