You could also try center feeding the dipole with one leg horizontal
over your property, maybe with a drooping end, and drop the other
vertically to near the ground with a horizontal run to finish off the
required length in the direction of your neighbor...best to bring the
feed line away from the feedpoint as horizontally far as possible
before dropping it to the shack to help de-couple it from the
vertical portion of the antenna...Link for this: http://www.cebik.com/
wire/ltv.html ...another option would be to feed the dipole mid-way
up the support structure (tree?) and have both legs go vertically up
and down as far as possible before either turning away from each
other, or pointing in the same general direction...Link for the
latter: http://www.yccc.org/Articles/double_l.htm.
