You might also check out the topband reflector.  There has been a lot of
discussion on inverted L's recently.

Depending upon how you intend to match the L you might want to make the
antenna around 135ft and then tune it at the base with a air variable
capacitor.

If you have a 2:1 Unun match you will want to trim the antenna for the area
in the band you want to operate.

Good luck

 I am trying to figure the length of inverted l using #12 insulated wire. I
come up with 120 ft is this right?
