Hans,

My experience with the Beverage is limited but that probably puts me ahead of 
about 99% of the ham population who have never built one.


Once you get the initial antenna up, whether it be a wavelength of wire laying 
on the ground or a single support model like I built, you will have to more 
than 
double your efforts to get a readily noticeable improvement in the performance 
of the antenna.  You might just want to try the simplest design and see how it 
works before improving on it with enhanced terminations, multiwires, and beefed 
up ground systems.
