David,
I've published a LOT of work on concepts like this.
This ran in National Contest Journal about six years ago. It's based on
extensive modeling, and was peer reviewed.

This was added to the ARRL Handbook or Antenna Book several years ago.

This is an application of the above technique.

N6BT (original Force 12) has done a lot designs for monoband and
multiband verticals that are loaded dipoles. The multiband Cushcraft
R-series and Hi-Gain AV-series multiband verticals (companies bought out
by MFJ many years ago) are loaded dipoles.

You're talking about a horizontal pair of AX1's ... I asked about them
oriented vertically. That wouldn't require them to be as high above
ground as you mention and would still allow them to be carried
pedestrian mobile.
