It's hard to beat the Hi-Z arrays when you have limited space..

When I tried a BOG compared to a Beverage, I found the BOG to be almost
useless compared to the Beverage. I would put up one of the arrays K9AY,
SAL-30, 4sq rec, etc.
I don't think you will be happy with a BOG after using a Beverage.

Just a ???simple??? question hopefully - How close to the ground should a BOG
be for best/good performance?

I am looking for any additional info that I can get to supplement what I
have found online already so good on the balun, wire type and termination
resistor.

My single unterminated beverage I have at the moment was transformational
compared to a Wellbrooke loop but the location it is in will soon be 80 new
homes so time to look elsewhere.  Current plan is a small number (maybe
three) BOG antennas switched by a remote relay but distance is limited to
200ft maximum in any direction.

Plan is to use the BOGs for 160 but also 80,40 and maybe 30m.
