In this height range (~70 feet), given take off angles and vertical 
propagation angle info from N6BV, I calculated that every 10 feet was 1 db, 
on 14 MHz meters or higher. 

That's why for my setup, I added 10 feet of tower, put the tribander at the 
top, and put the 2 element 40 on a side mount below the tribander. That way I 
gained 1 dB on the top three bands, at the expense of ~ 0.5 dB on 40.
