An Inverted "L" is more or less a vertical, but the upper half got bent over correct?

So a major part of an inverted "L" just as in a regular vertical is the ground system.
Correct?

Now how elevated radials work great in a regular vertical, only need like 4 to equal miles of wire in ground mounted radial field.

Will elevated radials work  for an inverted "L"?

How about few and shorter than full length elevated radials as in a N6BT design?

Have used inverted L with 90 apex for several years but wonder whether comparison tests or experiences with inverted V at that height compares. Tnx fer your ideas.W2LL
