Jim, have you tried low horizontal antennas? Even though their response to low-angle signals is inferior to that of verticals, they might provide a noise benefit, especially when phased.

Thanks for the reminder. I should do that -- when I visited with N6AA about ten years ago, Dick showed me a very low 20M Yagi that he uses on his high plateau to reject noise from the valley below. I told K6XX about it, who tried it, but it didn't help him.
