[TowerTalk] Inverted L Dimensions

[Scott MacKenzie]

That looks like it would work well - but unfortunately I really don't have
the room for it - I am really space constrained.  I will be  putting up the
antenna in an area between my house and the neighbors.    It is the only
real area that I have that I can put the wire up high enough and run the
coax to my shack.

Thank you 

Scott aka KB0FHP

Have you considered N6LF's vertical H?
