I am not sure what you are trying to accomplish but just be aware that the
dipole orientation will effect the results.

Jim,

I see your point.  I have easy to install (and extend up in the air)
telescoping supports for the ends of the V.
I've  found I can go from 10 feet to 38 feet with them.  I am going to
test the
antenna at 10 foot high
ends and then 38 foot high ends.   I have a ZL friend in New Zealand that
will
give me the signal
differences.  It will be a fun test to see what happens.  I have a big
Johnson
matchbox in line to
match any increase in SWR.

Thanks to you and Marsh for the info.  I will let you know the results.
