Has anyone here actually built a Lazy H for 10 meters?

Yes
I built a 10 meter EDZ Lazy H in 2001 (back when we had sunspots) .
Top wire was 40' up. Measurements were 22' per leg & 22' vertical
spacing. Phasing line (non twisted) was 450 ohm window line. Worked
excellent on 10, 12, 15, 17 & 20. Also used it on 40 where it acted
like a dipole.

It was bi-directional on 10-20. Didn't measure actual gain but always
got excellent reports (5x9+) in favored directions (from Siberia,
Ukraine, etc.) on 10-20 SSB with 100 watts.
