My 280 metre Bev is run through a hedge at about 1.5m high and works
perfectly well with one disadvantage..... there is a wire fence in the hedge
as well about 0.5m below it...... it fires both ways terminated or not!
It's still got a better S/N than the Marconi T though, and that's the most
important thing.
My K9AY loops are marginally better S/N, but I've adjusted them for optimum
F/B.... about 15dB at a few degrees elevation.
Have you though of building K9AY loops. I've got them strung from an 8m
pole in my wood.... a lot easier than stringing multiple beverages!
