I would recommend an inverted-L. 30-35 ft vertical is fine and run the rest of the wire as horizontal as possible. Use 3 or 4 tuned radials above ground or full radial field on the ground if preferred.
Mine works great.

My son KC2PWX is looking for a solution to a 80 meter antenna, problem is he has about 30-35 vertical feet he can go. He is using a ground mounted 5btv but is is awful on 80. Any idea?
