My suggestion for a simple job, is to have someone climb the tower and put a
pulley and rope at the top.
Very good idea.
An inverted vee with a peak at 90 ft and the
end of the antenna legs at least 50 ft off the ground will do a reasonable
job for you.
Only if what you want is a cloud-warmer that works short to medium
distance.
Alternatively, an inverted L, with 4 elevated radials – at least 10 ft off
the ground – 15 ft is better – will do pretty well with the kink of the L at
90 feet.
This is a FAR, FAR better idea. Better yet, load the tower, add the radials.
