Bzzzttt. Requires a good ground. Try the 1/2 sloper. The tower will
act as the "good ground" and be more efficient and less messy. I used
this antenna at my QTH in Lilburn and it worked VERY well. I could easily
work Europeans on 80M CW with 100w.

PS: Be careful taking antenna advice from a guy who spends more time
fishing than he does operating the radio. :)
