lot of feedline to deal with under normal installation condx. At least
around here in suburbia.

Hey, but not for field day. Whoever heard of a "field" with no room for
110 feet of feedline?

IF one can figure out to what to do with all
the excess feedline without messing it up.

It can be coiled into a big helix as long as the adjacent coils are
a couple of feet apart. You can run an insulated rope to the antenna
feedpoint and coil the ladder-line on the rope with the coils tiewrapped
a couple of feet apart. At the least you would have a conversation piece
to discuss over 807s (the best part of field day. :-) A photo of it would
probably make it into QST since it looks somewhat like a slinky. ;-)
