I could do a full size 40 meter dipole. This was my original plan
before deciding I wanted to see if 30 meters could be included. I
still may end up going back to this.

If you can do a full size 40 meter dipole, download the manual for
the DXE 4030 vertical and duplicate it on both sides of your center
insulator.  You will most certainly need a truss since the element
will be a little weak to self support.
