Okay, I put together the tip over pole. It needs more to weather proof it - I chose non-pressure treated wood to restrict the weight for lifting, but I at least have the Qv4k up to 34' 8" at the feedpoint. Next I will put the (other) 5/8 back up on the house and attempt to get some comparisons between the two.

BTW, raising the antenna has not affected SWR. It remained as it was at ten feet off the ground.
