Thanks in advance for any help!

Buy and study the ON4UN book from ARRL. There are many other questions you need to answer. For example, why that particular antenna? It's omni, more or less. With multiple high trees, you would be much better off with two dipoles at right angles that you can switch between, because their horizontal directivity gives you gain, and they're easy to feed with coax.

Want to work 80 and 40? Build those dipoles as fans. Also easy to do. See the applications notes on my website for construction ideas for antennas for limited space. There is both a text pdf file and a Power Point pdf. k9yc.com/publish.htm
