It reminds me of a time (1958 or so) when I saw in QST an article about a vertical antenna made by soldering soda cans (maybe they were beer cans) end-to-end to form a long column. Such cans were made, in those days, of plated steel, and pretty easy to solder with a big soldering gun. Anyway, there was this tall vertical made by soldering cans end-to-end.
It was more than twenty years later that I learned that that was not what was meant by "Beverage antenna".
