Re: [HCDX]: One last beverage question

[Willi Passmann <dx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

To add my 2 cent: Every time I used a Beverage on non-flat ground, it
resulted in a higher proportion of high angle reception. Signals of (local)
European stations were much stronger, as was the noise floor.

So if you want to take advantage of the low angle reception capabilities of
a Beverage, be sure to use it on a ground as flat as possible.

73,
Willi
