Bruce:
A 50' counterpoise is not ideal for 80 or 40. Try additional
counterpoises of 33' and 66'. Or try using an artificial ground with
your 50' cp.

Jay,
I'm currently using a 58-foot end fed wire with 50-foot
counterpoise. The SWR
came out at 1.4 on 80m, 1.8 on 40m, and 1.0 on 30 and 20m. That's
the best
I've been able to do with an end-fed wire so far.
