I have a Cushcraft R-8 vertical.  http://www.cushcraft.com/amateur/r8.htm 
I have been very happy with it.
15' above the ground on the back of my garage.

I have just complected a move to eastern Tennessee from my mountain top 
on the raged edge of paradise in Colorado.  In preparation for the move 
I went off the air a bit more than 3 years ago. 

Upon arrival in Tennessee I quickly figured out the slick real estate 
agents and their push to sell property with restrictions.  I found a 
place with no restrictions, but then had to do the remodeling routine.  
(Ya all know how that goes with the misses!)  So now  I am ready to get 
back on the air with the TT gear. (Omni 6+, Orion, etc.)

I have plenty of room for the tower and wires, but also have a couple 
other projects before I get to the heavy tower stuff.  I have been 
looking through QST and on the web at vertical antennas.  Because of not 
wanting to put out ground radials, and the NEED to get back on the air I 
have been looking at the GAP, HiGain and MFJ verticals.  I am open to 
considering anything else that may be out there.

So!  The question:  What advise or recommendation do you have for me on 
the selection of a no counterpoise vertical I should buy?
