Equipment / Re: I finally put up a Beverage antenna

   Another well-known practitioner of beverage antennas is Charles Rauch, W8JI.  I don't think he's published a book like the other guys I mentioned but he does have some on-line info at:

   http://www.w8ji.com/beverages.htm

   Includes comments about some of the points you brought up...

   An interface designed by him is available at:

I don't think sags are a problem.

I have several books that contain sections describing these antennas including "The ARRL Antenna BooK", ON4UN's "Low Band DXing" and one source specific to beverages "The Beverage Antenna Handbook" by Victor A. Misek
