One man's opinion -

Put up a 268'+/- horizontal loop, 67'+/- per side, feed it with open
wire/ladder line through your tuner. Get it as high as you can.

Suspend the corners of the loop through pulleys so that you can move the
feed point along the circumference of the loop. Moving the feed point will
shift the lobes & nulls along the azimuth (i.e. rotate the pattern). This
will be a good 80 meter antenna for local work & a good DX antenna on 10, 12
& 15.
