The Hy-Gain AV640, Cushcraft R8 (etc) and some of the Gap verticals
have minimal counterpoises and if you elevate the base a bit above
the roof, there shouldn't be any problems. I have used a AV640 for
the past 7 years and am pleased with the results. It is mounted on a
15 foot length of pipe with the base about 2 feet above the edge of
my roof. It's not rated for 80, but I have made contacts over 2000
miles on both 80 and 160 running 100 watts under the right conditions.
