"with the feedpoint at roughly the same height as the top of the fence"


so the fence will be below the antenna . thats good , but i think its gonna cause more problems that it will solve , but it can work .

you can also plan on that "large tree there that will completely conceal the antenna" blocking your signal to some degree .


damned if you do and damned if you dont ........ but something is better than nothing .


going by comments on forums it seems to be a hit or miss with folks adding ground elements to them . CMC's are the result of a poor ground plane so its always a good idea to use a choke at the feedpoint of antenna without them . a proper choke has no negative effect so i put them on every antenna .
