Steve,
For comparison my inverted-L is similar to yours with a 94 ft vertical
section and 43 ft horizontal (ish). It is on a tall tree, not a tower.

Like you, I use an L-network to match it and get a feed impedance on 1826.5
KHz of 50+j0. I have a 1600pF capacitor in parallel but no inductor as I
simply extended the antenna length to make it slightly inductive.

73,
Tom G3OLB
