One, Two or Three separate antennas?  A vertical on 50MHz won't matter
much.  I have a Diamond DPGH62 <now a CP62> that has nice performance
only 15' or so off the ground. You can also use any number of loops
like the KB6KQ, M2 and others. You can also see if you can round up
enough loops for 144 & 432 and stack them to get some gain.
