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.  See this:
