I am using a 4-sq, and with limited room for Beverages, it is the best
RX antenna I have ever had.

Current wisdom is that you can't have too many RX antennas.  My other
options would be:

1. Two wire Beverages, 440' NE-SW, and 300' NW-SE,  which would run
through the middle of the 4-sq.

2. Pennant/flag arrays, which would all be within 1/2 wave of the 4-sq.

Question for 4-sq. users:  Do you think I would get any consistent
advantage from either of these options vs. the 4-sq?
