Jim,
I always thought of Beverage as directional antenna that favors low angles.
Is it not so?
Regarding diversity, I always use two antennas (usually beaming West and
East) practically on all the bands. This helps not only to fight multy path
propagation but allows listening to weak signals from the east on sub RX
without AGC being offset by strong signals from the west. This is invaluable
capability for those, working pileup in contests.

least less cancellation) at the other. For the other situation of high
angle vs low angle paths, using a vertical antenna that favors low angles
and another antenna (Beverage or low horizontal dipole) that favors high
angles.
