As a practical application, the "Battle Creek Special" is configured with 
shortened radicals; 30 X 60' for mni years now.   It's success is well known.
We found, that when 1/4 wvl radials were furnished, DXpeditions often did not 
have space for deployment.  And used only a few of the radials included.

 Elevated radials can also be run zigzag to fit them in the available space.
My 1/4 wavelength S radial was like that.
