Hi Gary,

What about a simple pair of phased 
verticals, say 2x HF2V or similar,
spaced 90 degrees. 

That would give you some F/B and a
bit of gain to help offset some of
the ground losses.

Check the ON4UN books for more ideas.

Hope this helps!

>I am looking for some advice on a reasonably sized antenna for 80m.  My primary goal is to be able to work DX from the East Coast into Europe and the Middle East.  I do have the linear space, but not many trees for getting wire high off the ground.  Any recommendations would be appreciated.
