Our ARES group plans on installing an Inverted V antenna on the
second story flat roof edge of a local building. The antenna mast is 13
feet tall above the roof edge. The Inverted V will run parallel the edge
of the roof and be approximately 35 - 40 feet per leg. Our primary
operations will be 80/75/40M with a desired ability on 60M. The

I think you are going to have a difficult time operating on 80 meters if you
can not get around 120 feet of overall length. Then it may be difficult on
40 meters. If limiated to one single wire , coax fed, look at the off
center fed antenna.
