         UNDER THESE CONDITIONS, I WOULD HAVE  A 75 FOOT
         TOWER WITH A FAIRLY LARGE TRIBAND BEAM WITH
         A FULL HALF WAVE DIPOLE FOR 160 METERS,  AND SOME
         SHORTER DIPOLES FOR 20,.80, AND 40 METERS,  AND
         PROBABLY AN ALL AROUND VERTICAL FOR ALL THE BANDS
         AS AN OPTION TO USE WHEN THE OTHERS ARE NOT
         GETTING THE CLICK, FOR DIFFERENT ANGLES, ETC.

         UNDER THESE CONDITIONS I WOULD STRING AS BIG
         A DOUBLET / DIPOLE AS POSSIBLE AND TUNE IT FOR
         MULTIPLE BANDS,  AND MAYBE ALSO PUT UP A HUSTLER
         BTV OR SIMILAR TRAP VERTICAL WITH ABOUT 30 RADIALS
         AND GET SOMETHING FOR THE UPPER BANDS, LIKE
         A SQUALO OR SOMETHING INEXPENSIVE FOR 10 AND 6
         METERS.

IS THIS WHAT YOU HAD IN MIND?
