Ray, Another possibility for overcoming your limitation is to use weather balloons to loft your antenna: http://www.allsopp.co.uk/ They have many different sizes of balloons to choose from. You could easily use a vertical antenna, and raise it several hundred feet without a problem. Just make sure you're not too close to an airport.....
