Add more short (50 - 60 foot) radials, IMHO. Some 45 years ago I worked as
a wireless operator in fixed service on 60m band (my call has been 4NC24L)
and we used L antennas. At my surprise, ground was just 3' of galvanized
pipe knocked into the ground. At company's electrician workshop I got heap
Four 50-60 footers.
See: https://www.antennasbyn6lf.com/files/antenna_ground_system_experiment_4.pdf
for my rational.
