I'm not sure i understand how a seperately mounted whip would work, the idea
sounds interesting but I can't picture it.


Try this idea. Run the base of the antenna vertically up about three feet.
From that point, run the screwdriver coil horizontally. Then from the
other end of the screwdriver, run a non-destructable whip as high as
possible. It would look something like this:

+---screwdriver coil---+
| X
3' | Base non-conductive support
