Yes, I wanted a Beverage for 160m but did not know how to implement if
I was
in the center rather than the edge.

Questions re your implementation:
1) What is a reflection port, and how is this built differently than
using a
termination resistor?

2) Is the coupling port a pair of 9:1 baluns on the same ferrite core?

Thanks,

Well, ya gotta read between the lines... He wants a low noise receive
antenna.. Unless his desired listening directions coincide with the
fence line a beverage is not the solution... A low dipole is a good
antenna for an omni directional, low noise, receive antenna..

Yes, but he asked specifically about using the fence to
mount a Beverage, so I provided an answer that
applied specifically to a Beverage. Since Beverages
are directive, that's what he gets.

Why would you assume that he doesn't know that a
Beverage is directive? Every web page and every published
reference about the Beverage starts off with a description that
it is a directive receiving antenna.
