No counterpoise needed. Its called a "folded quarter wave dipole". Its
first resonance is due to its 1/2-wave circumference. Its input
resistance is not 300 ohms but 600 ohms. Its gain is 0,5 dB less than
the 1/2-wave dipole. This information is from "TV and Other Receiving
Antennas" by Arnold B. Bailey.

You might want to feed it with 450 ohm ladder line.

Ok, thanks.
