Low band antennas  
The feedpoint end of the NE Beverage.  The ends aren't sloped (again, W8JI advice: 8ft of drop is 8ft whether vertical or sloped 50ft).  This antenna is 580ft long @ 40 degrees, just south of short path to EU.  It is fed with 50ft of RG11 where it transitions to 7/8" CATV hardline to the shack.  The transition is once again grounded to reduce common-mode currents in the feedline.
