I need to put up a temporary antenna for 80 meters for the CQWW contest.
Which of the following will be a better DX performer?

1/2 wave dipole with both ends at 95 feet broadside to JA

sloping 1/2 wave dipole one end at 95 feet and other at 10 feet above ground
pointed towards JA

Thanks in advance. If I was better at modeling I'd do it myself but I'm not.

73, Bruce
