In answer to Jerry Ruhno (my mail system doesn't like your address
so I'm sending this to the full distribution list):

I recommend that you continue to use your longwire, string it up
outside in the clear and get a simple antenna tuner (MFJ makes one
for ~$35). This should do as well as a trapped dipole on the bands
the dipole is tuned for and better elsewhere. You'll have to twiddle
two more knobs for optimal reception but it's worth it.

I'd be interested to hear your opinions of the 2010 by the way
(especially the performance of the synchronous ECSS).
