Topband: Loop on the ground as a counterpoise - update

I've modeled two versions of the High Z Antenna Amplifier with a 5m 
vertical element one with a 10m long loop counterpoise and the other 
with a 10m straight counterpoise.

My version of 4NEC2 with NEC2 won't model it correctly close to ground 
but I've already spotted that it would be possible to successfully use 
the loop counterpoise on top of a tall building or mounted on a mast.

The links to my antenna models are:
