Default can a beverage be folded?

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..

cheers ... denny


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.
