Thanks Mike

A delta loop would be great but I am not sure where I could pull the
sides to and have them supported. Unless I am missing something obvious,
I would need to stretch the sides to be parallel with the guy wires and
I am not sure how well this would play. Installation may be tricky as
well. I will investigate the idea for as you say, the delta loop would
match nicely and could possibly be used on 80m with a little switching.

Hi Ed,

Nice thing to have access to. My thoughts would be for a delta loop ...
easy 
to build, tune, match, but with a tower that tall, I think I would
entertain 
building a bi-square. The wires from the wire antenna would have to be 
wiggled around the tower guys though.
