I think a 1/2 wave diamond array 4 square would look and work great since your tower is at 117 feet

I know it will likely require detuning the tower to make it 'invisable' to the 4-square so that is probably in the cards. Because of the difficulty of my particular location have to consider shifting the array a bit. Wondering if offsetting it from the tower a couple of feet to the east would matter? I've also thought about slightly orienting the 4-square instead of on N-S-E-W to turn it like 10 degrees where the north-south lineup of verticals would be more like 10 degrees - 190 degrees and the east west accordingly. The reason for this would be that the side hill to the NE where I have my one vertical has about 5 foot dropoff to the level ground. Basically I like in a gorge area with a seasonal creek through it but you deal with what you have of course. Any thoughts pro or con?
