Quick question- why did you chose the to wire of your L to slope toward the 
tower instead of away, sloping towards the ground? Would you reduce the impact 
of the tower in the middle by pulling the top wires away from the tower?

Sloping the end of an inverted L downward drops the radiation resistance 
like a rock!  Sloping the end of the inverted L upward raises
the radiation resistance.  The Effective Height of an inverted L
is *** Approximately *** the height of the end of the inverted L.
