Joe,
Once you figure out the spacing, consider putting a relay at the centre to
open the element when not in use. Theoretically, that will take the
reflector out of the equation and return your inverted vee to normal use.

Subject: [TowerTalk] putting a reflector below a 75 meter inverted vee
I am using an inverted vee at 95 feet and am contemplating putting a
reflector below it for a close in chatting. I believe that the reflector
needs to be 5% longer than the inverted vee but what should the spacing
be? I was told tonight to just lay the reflector on the ground but that
makes no sense to me. Thank yall for your help
