Try Lasy-U or Lazy-H vertical dipoles.
it's a vertical dipole which is end loaded.
built one as tall as you can go and then extend top and bottom until it
resonates at 3525 or whatever you need.
I used one in CQWW CW last year (but it was about 48-50' tall).
I worked 82 countries and 18 zones running 100W (TS-590 barefoot)
