Does the choke cause a significant sag in the antenna? For 40m maybe not; my 80m dipole with a choke looks like a V antenna, and I'm reluctant to increase the tension in the support ropes to the point where the the antenna starts to flatten out.

Weight for the chokes is part of the tables in the 2018 Cookbook. I have 100# weights on the support rope for my dipoles (they're up 125 ft, fed with RG11).
