Depends if you have interference problems with close-in neighbors.  Are you causing TVI? or are you picking up noise from neighbors? If so then you need the ugly balun and mast isolation first, taller tower for antenna, then you can think about ground plane for counterpoise.  Although, sometimes noise sources are stronger and further away from you and such measure dont help.


that being said, booty is right about the better antennas w-58 or maco v/58.
