TopBand: Linear loading

I am looking at using linear loaded elements on a 1/4 wave 160m vertical
with loaded radials as well. Can anyone tell what effect the wire spacing
on a linear loaded element will have on the length and impedence of the
elements?
Also, will multiple radials on only one side of the vertical provide any
meaningful gain in that direction on a low 160m antenna (i.e.- elevated
radials at less than 20'high).

thanks,

Al - KU4AR
