The beverages are up!  And boy do they work well - if you believe the notion that any beverage is better than no beverage.  I do and it is.

     I have enough land for decent size beverages.  Unfortunately, I don't have enough land for that in the directions I need.  Wound up with two short (260 feet) bi-directional beverages.  They don't play as well as the 1100 foot long beverages I had in WV, but I hear lots of signals that are simply not there on the transmit antennas and still get about 15 db front to back ratio.   Simply put, it was worth the effort to get these beverages up.

     An Ameritron RCS-8V in the shack with the remote switch unit at the antenna site handles the 4 direction switching with one feed line into the shack.  The beverages are about 250 feet from the shack.  That puts the receive antenna on one side of the house, and the transmit antennas on the other side.
