Scott,
If the radiator is not a half wave long, it is not a "half wave".
Yes, a random length wire may work, but please do not call a random
length a half wave - the length of a half wave is quite specific.
Similarly, a quarter wavelength is a specific length at a particular
frequency.

The counterpoise for an end fed half wave (or multiple) really doesn't
have to be anywhere near a quarter wave long.
