Beverage Antenna: Field installation techniques.

If you need a "quiet" receive antenna for field operations, please consider these "Beverage" antenna designs from Steve (VE6WZ).

Steve does an excellent job of decribing the pros and cons of "classic" Beverage-On-Ground antennas, and how you can make them part of your "antenna farm."

Because BOGs tend to be very long, they may not fit into your antenna plans. But for those who have remote transmitting and receive sites, BOGs can improve receive efficiency and noise suppression.

Here are some comments from Steve (VE6WZ):

Various methods for construction and installation of a Beverage RX antenna in the field. Described are methods for wire layout, tree clearing, wire support and both feed-point and termination installation using tree supports. Also shown is how the relay boxes for multiple Beverages, and the broadside phasing boxes are deployed in the field.
