A vertical dipole is very much on the agenda for things to try this Summer.
As others have noted, N6LF's website is a goldmine for understanding radials, the performance of verticals, and other antenna issues. The ON4UN book is also worthwhile.
You might also want to study some of the antenna planning presentations on my website. k9yc.com/publish.htm In addition to the obvious ones on vertical antenna height and a comparison of vertical and horizontal antennas at various heights, and with various ground quality, there's also one about getting on 160M from a relatively small lot, which is mostly about radial and counterpoise systems.
