Given all the information I think we are going the inverted L route with a
dozen 66 ft radials.

Subject: Re: [TowerTalk] What do do on 80 when height restricted?
Just happened to trip over this thread looking elsewhere...Jim's post
snagged my Google. Thimble answer:
The length goes from 33 feet either side to 16.5 feet either side. The
spacing is still 4 inches between folds, elevation should still be 8-10
feet if you can get away with it, and fewer bifilar turns are needed on the
core of the isolation transformer, though the 160 version of this works
fine on 80.
Be happy to answer questions at this email.
