The Beverage Antenna, 100 Years Later
The Beverage Antenna, 100 Years Later Still relevant for its noise-rejection abilities, the Beverage will become more important during Solar Cycle 25 as increasing sunspot activity leads to weaker signals on 160 and 80 meters. Ward Silver, N AX, and The trade-off is length Beverages need to be at least Frank Donovan, W3 LPL 3. 4 long to provide effective noise rejection. On June 7, 1921, Harold Beverage , W2 BML, (previ- ously 2 BML) obtained his first patent for his radio Wave Front Tilt receiving system. Back then, as they do now, operators A radio wave is an electromagnetic field (EMF) with an struggled to hear signals through the atmospheric static electric (E) and magnetic field strength (H) component that grew stronger as the frequency dropped.
mately matching its characteristic impedance, the unde-sired signal is absorbed at the end of the antenna and not reflected to the feed point. We now have an antenna that attenuates signals in all directions, except from the direction of its terminating resistance. Figure 4 shows the resulting pattern for 160-meter Beverages that are
