Shaun,
Ever think about having a look at the ARRL antenna book? You ought to be
able to find a local ham to help you through it, or at the very least give
you some pointers on what you need or want to do.

Subject: NVIS antennas
Hi all, what is the best hight for an NVIS antenna for 75 and 40 meters?
also, can I use an NVIS setup on 15 and 10 meters? all teh documentation
says I can't but, I don't necissarily believe it. providing conditions
are favourable, you could load up your old coffee can and get somewhere.
Failing that, I might just mount a couple of whips on the fence with
some kind of ground system in effect. While I'm here, has anyone had the
need to construct a dummy load? if so, what would be the best materials
for such an undertaking? I have here a coffee tin I aquired from work
yesterday to house the thing in. any tips and tricks would be greatly
appreciated. unfortunately, alot of what's on the net is diagrams and
not at all well described.
thanks in advance.
