Just an FYI, I have a 140 footer here with an 8' mast that sticks out of the
top. The tower has a 205BAS at the top with a 2 ele Mosley 40 meter beam
about 10' under it. My tower, however, is series fed (it sits on a base
insulator) and it does not seem to be too tall as I can work all the DX I can
hear.
By my calculations, with the top loading, it is electrically somewhere
around 3/8 wavelengths tall.
