Asked,

"Anyone have any tips on making an inverted-L out of 300 Ohm twin
lead? What is a good length? I can get about 72 feet vertical .

What length radials and how many?"

Phil,

There's no good or legitimate reason to use twin lead. Performance is
essentially identical to that of a simple single conductor. A shunt-coil
matched single wire element is the ultimate in simplicity.
