Hi Jorge,
some 20 years ago at YU1EXY, we spread sloping dipole and reflector (30m
apart) from 60m tall building to SW (at 45° angle), which created sloped
(semi vertical) yagi toward NW and which performed excellently. At
opposite side of building we had 3 el wire yagi for 80, made in same
fashion.
As far as I can recall, guys from Bologna (Italy) used 2 el inv V wire
yagi (switchalbe) at their "fungi" (water tower) shack, which also
preformed excellently.
IMHO, you need very tall supports for wire yagis, so IMHO it would be
better to build either wire 4-square or maybe sloping dipole array.
K3LR array would be excellent solution as well...
