And it would like a simple 40m dipole just as well and the simple wire
dipole will stand weather better.

Mute point!!

The bazooka is up in the air using a war surplus aluminum multi- 
section pole. Its only going to be up for a few days, maybe a week.  
At the most the pole is temporary.  Weather durability has no bearing  
for this installation.  The first good stiff wind will most certainly  
topple the pole, along with any wire antenna at the top.

Besides, what fun would be a simple 40 meter dipole? I've had those  
for 35 years.
