Try an off-centre-fed dipole, you'll have lower swr at the antenna to start with meaning less loss in your matching unit to get it to 50ohms. Running modest power you can use coax and the right balun and choke at the feedpoint if you can stand the weight up there. An inverted V configuration holding the balun on a pole works well.
