I second the recommendation of a moderately high 40M rotary dipole.
I worked my first 300 countries on 40M using various rotary dipoles
at 80 ft, including a full size wire on bamboo dipole and boom matched
dipoles on a 3L20 and a TH6 (the end elements act as large capacity
hats, resonating a 24 ft boom around 7.5 MHz).
