OOPS! Jon,
IF it is "end-fed" is isn't a "di-pole". It is just a half wave. I
guess it is technically a monopole.

Here's a very simple end fed vertical dipole:

It's simply a piece of coax. The braid is stripped off the last 1/4
wavelength. Another 1/4 wavelength from the end, there is a choke to
isolate
a 1/4 wavelength of braid from the rest of the cable. Presto, dipole!
Support it with a fishing rod, hang it from a tree, whatever.
