ALL of the above HF awards have been acheived using SMALL vertical aerials, located in a VERY small garden.!
It is vital that you have GOOD LOW ANGLE RADIATION if you want to work good DX and such vertical aerials achieve this.
It is also vital that you get the BEST possible 'Ground System' that your particular location will allow.
