Tom,

I agree with this post on all counts. What's actually there can be 
difficult to predict or even know, so anything that can be installed 
reasonably easily is worth a try. Yes, an end-fed wire loaded against 
the building as a counterpoise is certainly worth trying. This one of 
those situations where you must try the various options to see what works.
