I checked the link for the dipole mount assembly, and it seems as though you
can run two of these antennas in a vertical dipole configuration or
something...or at least, you can run the main coil and a whip as your lower
side anyway.
I'm thinking the tuning would have to be done on the ground and then raised
and checked since i think verticals will act differently when they're
further away from the ground.
