Any test is interesting but practically speaking the problem of vertical
wire at beverage ends is totally neglectable and doesn't deserve efforts and
time waste.
Care about proper termination relatively to beverage height, decouple
beverage and line grounds to prevent the lines acts as an antenna, use a
good impedance transformer with separate windings.
That's all.
