We've used this type of setup before for SS and things like that. Rich, WA1TRY has a number of sets of these and we used it for a 10 meter station at Bradley Field in 2013 for a 10-10 convention I ran. The last 10-10 convention ever.

Just following up on my previous posts in this thread.
I took a couple of quick photos today (see below) to provide a little more info on the possible use of the 31-ft. instant vertical or the ultra-compact 40m/20m dipole as an inverted V. Glad to bring the items in the photos.
BTW, for the vertical, there would need to be AT LEAST 25 feet of coax from the base of the antenna (the exit of the 9:1 unun) as a counterpoise, then an "8 x 8" RF choke (8 turns of coax, 8" in diameter) before entering the shack (or before the operating station if outdoors).
Let me know if you'd like me and my XYL to provide these items.
