> IMHO, for that number, on-the-ground radials do not need to be anywhere near that long.  Personally, I subscribe to the same-length-as-the-vertical guideline.

The only thing about this I advise in the way of a change is something
W1BB recommended, which was that the radials on the ground going out
underneath the horizontal L wire should be as long as the horizontal
wire.  My horizontal component has some bends in it and I routed
around 10 radials under it to follow it.  It probably doesn't make
much difference, but it isn't that hard to run a few that are under
the wire all the way out.
