Peter,
It depends on a lot of things: ground characteristics, number of radials,
height of radials and the overall height available.
Generally, over average-to-good ground and with 32 or more radials, the
inverted L will perform better for DX at anything up 100', most of the time.
If you can put an inverted V higher than 100', you may get a better antenna,
especially if your QTH is over poor soil and you have only a few radials.
Really, there is only one way to tell: Try it.
Ultimately, having both will give you the best performance.
I know this is not very helpful, but ...

George,

Have used inverted L with 90 apex for several years but wonder whether
comparison tests or experiences with inverted V at that height compares. Tnx
fer your ideas.W2LL
