Thanks Bruce. Sounds like practical constraints led to a
worthwhile outcome.

Nick,
Although I did not measure it, the front to back, and front to side
is better, overall more quiet.
It is receiving toward the Caribbean.
Europe, and USA stations, are lower in signal strength.
Can often work Caribbean and South American stations through a small
pile up when they are not working split.
In my case it was a worth while change.
The original plan was to be able to drive my car under it.

Dennis,
Is there a photo or sketch available of your antenna anywhere by email ?
Note: Height above ground helped a lot when my receiving Delta
antenna was re-installed higher. The bottom wire went from 3 feet up
to ~6 feet at my QTH.
