Topband: Inductively Loaded Dipole vs. Inverted U dipole

[PaulKB8N at aol.com]

I am  trying a few different antenna configurations and would like to  get 
some expert opinion on which of two antennas might work best.  I  have about 
150' between two trees and I wonder if an inductively loaded short  dipole at an 
average height of 40' (loading coils in the middle of the legs)  would 
outperform a full-sized inverted U (where 35' wires on each end of the  dipole to 
drop vertically to ground.  I know the loading coils may cause  some losses and 
my stealthy wires can only support some modest sized  inductors.  I also know 
that the high voltage ends of an inverted  U antenna are likely to cause losses 
when close to the ground.
 
Has anyone used a short inductively loaded dipole and/or an inverted U who  
can shed some light on the relative virtues and pitfalls of each antenna?
