I agree with W0UCE, keep it simple.
No need to go $$. For years I used a simple 30ft length of wire hung from the
tower and fed at the base. No matching, just a run of RG-58. No problems with
the Log Periodic etc at the top. Must have worked... got them ALL !!
I know another KM1 who simply stuck a (aagh) 108" CB whip at the top of the
tower, made a dandy spotting vertical, was free, and indestructible.
Keep it simple !
73 !!
