Hi Tom,
No antenna having the same directional pattern that you put at the same
spot will be quieter. If you haven't already done so, I strongly
suggest that you wind a good common mode choke on one or more #31 cores
at the feedpoint (up in the air). Also, study my applications note (on
my website) about chasing and killing receive noise, and do what you can
about implementing the recommendations.
FWIW, the good tech comments I've seen on the Bazooka antenna is that
it's NOT good engineering.
