Well, I checked the SWR. 1.5 @ ch.1 and a hair below 2 on 40. As for
the inverted dipole, do you reccommend i mount it as an 'L'?


I do have to laugh that people think 1:1 is the holy grail, that they won't
be heard if they have 1.5:1. Resonance is more important then impedance.

Height _is_ the most important factor for antennas. Height is might!
