I'd like some input on whether the 3/8 wave inverted L or 1/4 wave
inverted L is likely to be a better low takeoff angle antenna. In either
case, the antenna is going to be about 70' tall, with the remainder
basically horizontal. They'd be fed over 56 75' radials. I'm not
concerned about loosing the higher angle radiation I expect I'd gain
with the 3/8 wave, if I want to warm clouds, I've got a 160m loop got
that ;-)
Thoughts?
