I forgot that
15M wasn't a ham band when Lattin was working on the patent for
this kluge.
IIRC, the design was for 4, not 5, bands
Lattin (W4JRW) mentions in his December 1960 QST article that any of
his "decoupling stub" antennas that include 40 meters will also work
on 15 meters.
A quote from the article:
"Any of the antennas which will operate on 40M can also be used on 15M
as the 40M stubs will be approx. 3/4 wavelength long and will provide
decoupling."
