Well, on the commercial side, I've seen Force 12 Sigma vertical dipoles
used with success (esp on the higher bands) in field day settings.
I think the real issue is available supports. A fifty foot tree puts all
kinds of wire antennas in play. Even a forty or thirty foot tree does a
lot. Out here in the dessert, push up poles of various sorts are going to
be important considerations.
