      Absolutley! I had a big 4 el 40 at 65 feet and it worked great,
      wish I still had it, took it down to be put on another tower
      at a greater hight, however that other tower must first be 
      erected and it took longer time then I intended, hopefully soon.
      Whis I even had a 2 el at 60/70 feet since it will beat the 4 
square
      I use right now.

I have to agree... I had a 2 el 40m at 75' and it was a great antenna...
wish I had it up now...
