I am negotiating the placement of a 4-element MonstIR on top of a 200' tower at 
the St. Johns inlet of the Atlantic Ocean.  If I proceed, only one antenna can 
be used and it must be placed at the 200' level with no opportunity to go 
lower.  

Before moving further with negotiations, I want to ensure that the plots don't 
produce some unintended consequences owing to the unusually high height on the 
upper bands.   I realize that as height increases, the number of lobes along 
with associated maxima and minima field strength increases.  DX is a concern, 
stateside contesting is not.  Anyone willing to run some elevation profiles for 
40M & 20M?  Tnx!

Paul, W9AC
