Ideas welcome. If however you want to say it "wont work" please back it
up with some maths/calcs or your own direct experiences.

I am able to work 40 to 45 miles from my mobile, using a 20m Hamstick in
the center of the sedan roof, to a friend who is using a ground mounted
vertical made from half a driven element from an old tribander. We are
both running 100W SSB, and the received signal levels are just enough
above the noise level to communicate. The terrain is relatively level,
and the path is from the western Minneapolis suburbs to a town southwest
of Minneapolis.
