[TowerTalk] Vertical for a 50' tower

A Gap Titan might work well in that situation.  80-10 coverage, no radials,
just a fixed counterpoise and basically, it's designed as a vertical
dipole..  Ground mounted, I've never been a huge fan of Gap, but at 50 feet,
it would probably work really well.  I mounted one at 15 feet and got
reasonable results.

Hey guys -

I was looking for opinions of what current production vertical would work 
well for tower installation.

I need  80m - 10m coverage.

I know a dipole would work better but the folks don't want any wires around 
and just want something
pleasingly to look at.

Suggestions ?
